My husband and I have both been patients of Dr. Kimmell 's for quite a few years for both shoulder and knee issues and trust him tremendously. His decisions have not always been about surgery but have resulted in decreased pain. I would always recommend his office.

I’ve been to doctor Kimmel for rotator cuff tears in both shoulders and currently working on one. I would recommend him to anyone I know.

I went to Dr. Kimmel as my knee was weak and I had difficulty bringing it across the other. He confirmed it was due to my lumbar back nerves and gave me a knee brace so it wouldn't give out before my spine surgery.

I have been Dr Kimmel’s Office patient for a few years now, for rotator cuff surgery and synthetic shots. I couldn’t be more pleased with him. He is kind considerate, and never rushes just takes his time. I would recommend him to everyone.

Went to this office to get help for my shoulder. The Dr. Was nice enough but I have been waiting a week and a half for them to schedule an MRI. I realize some insurance companies are slow but no one has called to follow up or check on me.

Probably the most seamless doctors appointment I have ever had. Arrived a few minutes early and was taken right into an exam room. A few questions from the medical assistant. X-ray technician arrived and escorted me to X-ray room. 5-10 minutes to X-ray both knees. Meet Dr.Kimmel on the way back from X-ray. He read my scans and gave examined both knees. Very thorough and took time to answer any and all questions. Entire appointment lasted no more than 20-25 minutes. I was also a first time patient.
