Dr. Vinglas is very professional and is a trustworthy physician. I had a great experience with him and his staff, I highly recommended him to anyone needing help with the upper extremities!

It has been three years since I had total shoulder replacement surgery, which was performed by Dr. Vinglas. It has worked flawlessly since the operation - fully functional and pain free.

The process was seamless. I loved having the initials of my providers on my shoulder. I awoke without trama or pain and felt ready to begin my recovery. 5 months later I have full use of my arm but am slowly regaining my strength. I am very active and prone to over use. I will try to be as disciplined as the wonderful staff at Bridget Clinic to achieve my goal of total recovery. Thank you Dr. Vinglas!

Dr Vinglas did an excellent job with my wrist surgery from diagnosis , surgery and follow up. I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone needing his type of service. In addition, several of my close friends have had Dr. Vinglas treat them and hold him in high esteem !!!!!!

I felt he was not very knowledgable for someone in his profession and wasted $165 for him to tell me that he really couldn't say what was wrong with me. Given the "solutions" that he provided me with for my problem it was clear he didn't take the time to listen to me. I would not recommend him.
