Dr. Kornack has been my dr since 2012 when he did my hip replacement. I have been in recently to see him at hawthorne and the first thing i see is the smiling face of his assistant tiffany who made sure i got an appointment asap to discuss my concerns. To me this really shows the type of office he has. Between dr kornacks knowledge and her compassion they are the best team around.

I've been seeing Dr Kornack for hip pain several years after a hip replacement. When X-rays showed implant was not loose, Dr. Kornack lost interest in the problem and told me to learn to live with the pain. Not ver satisfactory.

Dr. Kornack performed a successful trigger finger surgery. The nurses in the OR told me that he was the best and kindest orthopedic surgeon that they work with. I have seen him for several years for various orthopedic issues and find him to be extremely kind, efficient, intelligent and always explains my options in ways that i can understand. I would recommend him highly to anyone and in fact, have done so.

Dr. Kornack was cold and uninterested in myself as a patient. I had brought my baby in with me who sat quietly in a carriage and Dr. K never even acknowledged the baby in any way. He talked down to me and was actually rude. After 2 visits with him I started seeing his Nurse practitioner instead who was wonderful. Would not recommend this doctor to anyone.

I've been seeing Dr Kornak for my knees for years and just recently he performed a scope on my left knee. I've had no pain at all in the knee when awake and not too much at night. It's day 4 and I'm walking around and going up and down stairs with no pain. I highly recommend his services
