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.

Great doc!
Dr. Kaminski and his staff are caring and genuinely interested in the best plan for me. They are patient and listen to my concerns about my knee. Thank you, Dr. K!

Visit to Azalea Clinic in Mt. Pleasant
We were acquainted with the Tyler Azalea location, so I was delighted to find I could get the same quality care in Mt. Pleasant, just 10 minutes from our home. Accepted as a new patient with Dr. Kaminski, paperwork I filled out on line expedited time normally spent in the office. Taunya was so efficient and friendly. Dr. Kaminski, recommended by a friend, was so professional, friendly and explained my X-rays, my options and proceeded with my choice of treatment. Absolutely the best experience in a doctor’s office in years! Appointment was at 9:00 and walked out at 9:25.

Excellent physician and staff
Kindness, excellent surgeon and staff. On time and patient. Did TKA on me and essentially released today, 6 weeks later. I live in Dallas and found him online. Good Christian man.

Fabulous surgeon
Dr Kaminski has replaced both my hips. I’ve been amazed how great my hips feel after surgery both times. Essentially no pain - some stiffness, but for me truly miraculous surgeries and easy recoveries. Dr Kaminski is wonderful about answering questions and gives great care. Same for all his staff!

Two Years Later Still Nerve Pain
Everything went well before surgery and immediately after. Dr. K was nice, as was his staff.I developed internal scarring within 3 weeks, despite PT, and was treated with disdain by the PA. At month 3 Dr Kamenski put me under anesthesia and riped out the scarring. But he said he couldn't get rid of all the internal scars because it would have broken my leg.My knee was never right despite loads of PT. Two years later, I still have massive numbness on the right side of my calf and my knee feels like it's disconnected, shaky, and insecure. I'm in worse pain then before the surgery. I did everything right and followed all directions. I have called the office to ask about an appointment and was told I didn't need one. My opinions have certainly changed. I would never have had the surgery had I known the future. I would have been better off just to wear a knee brace every day.

An answered prayer!
From check in to check out, everyone is friendly, respectful and professional. The waiting room is super clean with ample seating. I only waited a few mins before being called back. The dr was outside a room and watched me walk down the hall to the room and was in there in just a minute or 2. He is direct with you, caring and easy to understand and he wants to know if there is a problem or if there's not a problem. Dr Kaminski is genuine and wants to see you better but of course you have to do your part as well. And he is happy to see you doing well and caring enough you're not afraid to approach him if you are having an issue. He has replaced both my knees and I would recommend him to anyone wanting the job done right! Oh and he does hips too!!!

I had some X-Rays taken for the VA and was told that the hardware in my left knee was loosening. After Dr. Kaminski viewed new X-Rays, it was determined that the hardware was not loosening and was solidly in place.
