Ryan Dopirak, MD

Just that he showed genuine concern and I listened to me which made all the difference he took the time to explain everything also

I wish more Froedtert doctors offices ran like Dr. Dopirak's! The assistant showed me to an exam room, asked briefly about why I was coming in, and then said the doctor would be in shortly. Then he came in very promptly and we discussed my reason for being there. No explaining my whole medical history to some mid-level for them to go discuss with the actual doctor, and then the actual doctor come to meet with me and I have to explain everything again! This was the way it should work!Later the same day I needed to call to discuss a problem I was having scheduling imaging I was having. I figured I would need to leave a message for a nurse to call me back but the number I called when straight to the doctors office and was answered by a real person (not a automated phone options tree). I spoke with her directly and she was able to handle my issue immediately, in real time! This was by far the BEST doctor experience I have had in a very long time! Especially from a Froedtert office which in… general has gotten worse and worse.

Do as they advise and you'll be fine

Dr. Dopirak is an orthopedic surgeon who is highly skilled, compassionate, good humored, and who works with an excellent and caring staff.

I'm very grateful

They were all so nice and very considerate

Excellent care

Was in a car accident over two and a half years ago complained to the doctor telling him that something wasn't right for months and months he kept telling me it's okay takes time to heal like I said it's been over two and a half years I have two more MRIs coming up in the next week all I got to say is when doctors hear your patient telling you there's something wrong please listen to them because there is something wrong and I have serious problems with my dominant arm I had two surgeries in one performed and now I don't know what the future brings I have lost muscle in my entire arm it looks horrible and my bicep muscle not even there in May possibly be disconnected again I can't do daily routines and all because the doctor would not listen he talks a good game but he doesn't listen very well I probably wouldn't refer him to anybody that I know my husband had some surgeries on his knees from him and the one is no good so he can talk about his hunting in his vacations all day long I… don't care it didn't help me heal correctly so I would not suggest him

I highly recommend Dr. Dopirak and his physician assistant, Mike. I severely injured and damaged my right shoulder in an accident. My first surgeon screwed it up, leaving me with more pain and problems. I was referred by my PT to Dopirak, who did an absolutely wonderful job repairing my shoulder. Despite a large irreparable area of crushed bone, I am pain free and have full use of my arm!! After compensating for my damaged shoulder nearly 3 years, I wore out my left shoulder tearing the rotator cuff. It was another extensive repair, but again Dr. Dopirak did a fantastic job. It's only 8 weeks since surgery and I have nearly full range of motion and very little pain. As a result of my positive experience, I referred several friends to Dr. Dopirak. They too are very happy with his professionalism, skills, knowledge, and courteous and helpful staff. Shoulder surgery and recovery isn't easy, but you can be confident that Dr. Dopirak will do his very best to help.

Two years ago I took a bad spill off my horse severely injuring my shoulder. I had two fractures, part of the ball was crushed, the impact cause the collar bone to grind on another bone, I tore my rotator cuff, bicep tendon and cartilage, and as a result of the injuries I developed arthritis and a bone spur.The first doctor I saw was incompetent. Despite the numerous injuries showing on the MRI, he only repaired the torn cartilage and took out a piece that was floating around in my shoulder. He repeatedly told me that he saw no other tears, problems or arthritis. Yet I continued to have as much pain as I did prior to surgery. So he had me see his co-worker who did little to help me. He injected me with cortisone and sent me to physical therapy.The physical therapist said something was seriously wrong with my shoulder. I was not about to go back to the other doctors, so she referred me to Dr. Dopirak.During my first appointment, Dr. Dopirak immediately showed me all the problems… from an MRI. It was going to require another surgery. I was very apprehension after my first surgery, but Dr. Dopirak was very reassuring. He told me he would do his very best, that he would give me 110% and would treat me like family. True to his word, when getting prepped for surgery, he greeted me and said not to worry, that he was going to take good care of me. Between Dr. Dopirak and his assistant, they went beyond my expectations. His assistant even called after my surgery to see how I was doing. I saw before and after pictures of my shoulder. It was a mess. However, the final outcome was amazing. He did a wonderful job repairing nearly all the damage. The only thing that could not be repaired was the area on the ball that had been crushed. Dr. Dopirak didn't feel it would give me any problems.It's only been two and a half weeks since my surgery, but I'm already noticing a big difference. After the first week the pain has been very manageable. And I am beginning to do some light exercises.I highly recommend Dr. Dopirak, his assistant and staff. They have been wonderful to me. Dr. Dopirak is a no nonsense, highly skilled doctor, and he treats his patients with respect and kindness. He also took time to answer all my questions.
