We have been seeing Dr Karpitskaya for many years now and never disappointed with appointments or anything to do with her. She has put pins in broken legs and worked with broken collarbones for my grandsons. I tell everyone I know to go to her for anything she can help with. Very sweet and professional. Actually her whole staff at her offices have always treated us well. Thanks for everything Dr K

Dr. Yekaterina Karpitskaya messed up my knees worse than they were after showing up late for my surgery. I've been getting treatment for them since the surgery. I have been in pain since and have spent lots of money on continued treatment, since her careless attitude about the situation. Her only solution was for me to pay her again to have another surgery. Greed!

Dr Karpitskaya is an excellent surgeon. Her knowledge and confidence in what she does is palpable. From my very first visit and every post-op visit after I felt like I was in good hands. I would recommend her easily to my family and friends. Her staff is not as competent as she is but then again she sets the bar high for excellence. Everyone but the cast tech look miserable and downtrodden. I was a practice administrator for many years and started several MA Programs throughout the US. Her medical personnel do not reflect her excellence.

Wait time is a little excessive but Dr. K was exceptional. We have been seeing her for a very long time and think there is not a better Orthopedic doctor anywhere.
