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.

Thank you, Dr. Feiertag! After shoulder pain for more than 2 months due to a mishap with my dog, a shot of cortisone was the answer. Thanks again.

Dr Feiertag listened to me and actually read all the forms I filled out. He was conservative in his suggestions on how to proceed with treatment options. He respected my fear of MRIs!

Dr Feiertag reviewed my case and told me that he was confident that surgery would restore my ability to function without pain . He installed the necessary rods and screws during my operation and in less than two months I was playing pickle ball . I had epidural shots for a year. Prior to surgery I could hardly get out of bed. I had spondylitis and spinal stenosis. I would give him a Five Star recommendation based on my experience.

Dr. Feiertag has been my Doctor for many years. I always leave my appointments feeling such confidence in all Dr. Feiertag has concluded. As in the past and future I trust all he has done to get me through many health obstacles. He is always professional, takes time to listen to your concerns and will always be Informative. His nurse Valerie is the best she always has time to speak to you about how you are doing and it is always sincere. If you are looking for an orthopedic Doctor I highly recommend Dr. Feiertag.

Because of Dr Feiertag's wealth of knowledge and abundant patient care, I went into emergency spinal surgery on Easter Sunday (unable to walk unassisted or even wiggle my toes) to waking up after surgery wiggling my toes and partially able to lift my feet. The partial paralysis had just appeared one day out of no where, I did have a spinal surgery already scheduled a few weeks away because I had a very serious injury of the spine/discs that could only heal after surgery. I couldn't stand up straight, walk, sit down or do anything without severe pain. One morning I woke up, got out of bed and tripped on my feet. It wasn't until I tried to walk to the bathroom that I realized my feet were the problem; and the lack of control over them. I made an emergency in-office exam and within minutes and several examinations Dr Feiertag knew my best chance of getting my feet back was emergency surgery... He was right. Thanks to him, I can walk again.

Dr. Firetag has given me a new lease on active living. He performed spinal surgery to relieve pressure on the nerves as well as clean up a ruptured disc. Now after 10 years I have no more back pain and am able to resume normal activities!

Prior Orthopedic Surgeon told me my spin was inoperative. He said "This is you life deal with it." I tried to for three years. I researched other doctors and eventually found Kennedy-White and Doctor Feiertag. He reviewed my MRIs and file history and recommended two alternatives. Epidural Steroid Injections and if they did not resolve the pain issue Surgery. The first three Injections took away 90+ % of the pain. He suggested three every six months if needed. I had one six months later and it resolved my pain issue. He had a plan and a backup plan. It was a miracle and I thank him for his skills and thoughtfulness and God for His blessings.
