Sep 2024AwesomeSep 2024Everyone was wonderful!Sep 2024It was a great experience with all Providers and the hospital.Sep 2024Like that dr michnick made eye contact and really listened to my concerns without rushing my questionsSep 2024The only issue was how long it took to get an appointment. I was referred to this doctor by my primary care doctor's assistant. He said he had marked the referral "urgent." Yet the appointment offered to me was almost a full month after the date of the referral. I asked the referring doctor whether this was what he expected, and he replied that it was not. He expected that an earlier appointment would be made. In the end we accepted the long wait, as with time my pain diminished to bearable levels.Sep 2024Very goodSep 2024Excellent doctor Staff very goodSep 2024They listen to problem and concerns the patient gave.Sep 2024Their willing to do whatever you need to have done regarding your health.Sep 2024Dr Michnick listens to you and explains your care in an easy to understand language.Aug 2024Staff has stayed late when we called with a minor emergency near closing time. Also, His nurse practitioner is also very skilled and insightful and and the front staff regularly greets us with kindness and understanding (even when My teen has made us late for our appointment!)Aug 2024We have been seeing Dr. Michnick for a few years now. He and his staff have always provided us with valuable insight and made us feel cared for. When my son finally needed surgery in summer 2024, I felt at ease and assured of a positive outcome that will benefit my son for the rest of his life. It is still early in the healing process but the positive difference in my son's gait and posture is already evident! Further, Dr. Michnick personally helped us navigate the complexity of our insurance company to ensure that we received maximum support from our insurance that we were entitled to. I also would like to note that a few years ago when my mother broke her hip; It was our good luck that Dr Michnick was the surgeon on call; He performed my mother's surgery with the utmost care and compassion. My mother fully recovered and felt better than she had in years and she gave full credit to Dr. Michnick's impeccable skill.Aug 2024Well run clinicAug 2024Excellent stafff treated with kindness and efficiency all the way. Had no unanswered questionsAug 2024Its has been a great experience and I feel more informed about my issue then I had at my previous doctors.Aug 2024GreatAug 2024Awesome jobAug 2024These people are very professional.Jul 2024Great Doctor. Great staff.Jul 2024Great Doctor. Great staffJul 2024Very nice and efficientJul 2024Very kind and explained everything wellJul 2024The staff's explanations and answers to questions were all clear and easy to understand. All my questions were answered with courtesy.Jul 2024Always compassionate and caring.Jul 2024ExcellentJul 2024ExtraordinaryJul 2024Dr. Michnick gave very realistic expectations and explanations of all options, surgical and non surgical. I've always appreciated how honest he is. Trust is so important with a doctor and I genuinely trust his advice. I know he would never recommend something that wouldn't have the chance to help me. I appreciate his bedside manner, and he is very smart and up to date on newest technology.Jul 2024I enjoy how he simply got to the point of my careJul 2024The nurse that greeted me, taking me back to an exam room, was especially personable and caring. She is a great asset to your practice.
