I was overwhelmingly impressed. Everyone from the front desk to the xray tech was on point. Dr Knesek met with me and went over a vast amount of information with detail and understandable language. The information was clear and he did not hold back on what was expected of me to make the surgery a success. I would recommend Dr Knesek to anyone!

Dr Knesek is an amazing surgeon. After LTKR surgery, I am no longer in any pain, and am able to play basketball with my grandson! Thank you Dr Knesek!

I saw Dr. Knesick for hip pain and he diagnosed me with bursitis and gave me a steroid injection in the same visit. I feel better already. The visit was great and would highly recommend him for treatment.

As per usual, Dr Knesek spent time with me. I did not feel rushed. He listened to me and then successfully problem solved. I have had both knees replaced with Dr Knesek and one reason they both were successful was because he was my doctor. Can’t recommend him enough.
