Dr. Joseph Pullekines, MD

I recently suffered a posterior dislocation of my shoulder. It was misdiagnosed at the emergency room and I was referred to Dr. Pullekines. After a quick examination he confirmed that it was indeed dislocated. I've been walking around for nearly a week with the dislocated shoulder which was very painful. He was able to get me in the OR in a timely manner and set me on the path to recovery. After experiencing that kind of pain I thank God for the men and women in the medical field that are gifted in putting us back together when we fall apart.

It seems orthopedists are only interested in the tree not the forest. They see a problem and jump to fix it. Dr. Pullekines sees the whole forest and attempts to discover the root cause of your ortho problem. He may seem abrupt to some. However, as a true savant, he quickly goes through a mental checklist of possible symptoms that could be contributing to the patient's problem. He has helped me immensely. I highly recommend him.

He is very rude! Had an appt today had to have xrays done first, of my fractured toe, well then I got onto his office he tells me there's no change, and starts poking around on it well obviously that's quite painful, he said you're tearing up that's an immature response. Also asks if i have anxiety, and if I take anything because I was tearing up because ot was painful!he was very ignorant. Did not listen to anything I said. Doubted my pain sensations.

My husband saw Dr. Pullekines 3 days after an accident with one of his fingers. My husband and I were very concerned what the outcome would be. Dr. Pullekines was very professional from the first visit to the last. ( First office visit, Surgery, and 7 visits after surgery). We were very much please with Dr. Pullekines and his staff. We could not be more pleased with the whole experiences. And my husband's finger ?? Well let's just say he has one again. Thank you Dr. Pullekines & Staff.

I wouldn't send a toad frog to this Dr. He was the most unprofessional, disrespectful, quack I've ever seen. I left in the same pain in which I arrived. Refused to do any tests or offer any explanation as to why I can't move my wrist....
