Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Practically pain free now
Had seen another doc. Twice and had injections, then PT, still severe shoulder pain so went to Dr. MIkol for 2nd opine & he gave a different type of injection after a MRI, and it worked,though very painful injection. After suffering for 9 months, finally relief..and I can now use and lift my arm. At both visits, he was very cordial, listened and explained my situation and treatment.

Should be ten stars
Professional, very polite, short wait to see him. I especially like that he remembers me and knows what I need. I get steroid injections for bursitis. I’ve been to several other doctors for the procedure but they have never relieved me of my pain the way Dr. Mikol does. He is like a savior for me and I am so thankful to have found him. I’ve been with him about four years now and hope to continue to be his patient in the future. So how about I give him 100 stars! Thank you for everything, Dr. MikolGail Fischer

Total Hip Replacement 12/22/22
I felt everything went well. Every step was well organized and basic expectations provided. Along with multiple phone calls and emails reviewing what needed to be done when. From first appointment, pre op tests, check in for surgery, prep for surgery, post surgery activities, physical therapy home visits and follow up appointments. It would've been nice to see the pre surgery x-ray with explanation of issue and the post surgery x-ray to show replacement.
