“Satisfied”

I believe my doctor was very good and I am satisfied with the results

“Very excellent”

Dr. Kirschenbaum is very good and easy to talk to.

“Beautiful person, very caring”

I have never had a bad experience with Dr. Kirschenbaum. He is very informed and explains everything that is going on with my knee. I am happy he is my doctor.

“No problems”

Had surgery in November and haven't had any problems! Excellent experience at BrnoxCare orthopedics.

“Both knees need surgery”

I went to Dr. K for a second opinion because another doctor told me I did not need surgery. I thought this was all wrong and Dr. K agreed. He took x-rays of me standing up and showed me how bad my knees were.

He did tell me that the decision to have surgery was all mine and depended on the amount of pain I was having daily and also whether or not I can do what I want to do. Since I can't even walk more than 1 block this was not a hard decision.

“Great visit! Long-time patient.”

Dr. K operated on my knee a few years ago so when I had pain in my other knee there was no one else I was going to. He he so good. He spent an awesome amount of time with me and explained everything completely.

I Don;t need surgery now. He put to together a plan for me to avoid that. I really appreciated it.

Thank you.

“Solving my problem”

I went to this doctor and I had bad knee arthritis. Now I am getting a knee replacement. The clinic was great.

“Both knees”

I have really horrible arthritis in both knees. I have not seen a doctor like this who spends time explaining everything that needs to get done. It seems he is the chief of the bone surgeons here and his team is great. He sent me to his knee replacement surgeon for surgery. I am glad my problem is finally being taken care of.

“Better than my other doc”

I went to another bone doctor who told me I needed a knee replacement. Dr. Kirschenbaum went over all my x-rays very carefully showing me why a knee replacement was not going to help with. This was great news!

Now I am on medications and getting an injection and it's working.

“Both hips and moving!”

Dr. Dr. over the last 7 years or so replaced both of my hips. I am doing great and he always makes time for me in the office when I see him for checkups. Great doc.

“Came after surgery somewhere else”

I had surgery with another doctor at another hospital and Dr. K was kind enough to see me because I was in pain. He made sure I did not have an infection which was good. He gave me some pills for my inflammation which worked great. I recommend him and his entire clinic.

“Go here. Good doctors.”

I saw 2-3 docs in the ortho clinic here at bronxcare. I like them all and helped me with things I have wrong with me.

“Ten years and going strong”

I always love it when I read about the good things other people are saying about Dr. K! I met him almost 10 years ago when he first came to my hospital in the Bronx. He replaced my right knee and has taken care of so many other body parts, I almost can;t count. Glad I met him.

“Long time with Dr. K and I am doing great”

I had arthritis of both my knees for more than 5 years. He has been my doctor and replaced one knee and the other I don;t need a new knee now. I am glad I met him so long ago and trust him a lot.

“Very complete in the visit and the care later”

I went to this doctor because my regular doctor sent me to him. I did not know what to expect. The wait time was a little long, about 30 minutes and I did not like that. When I finally saw him I was really surprised how much time he spent with me and how careful his questions were. I had my hip problem for a long time and a lot of doctors did not make the right diagnosis. I really am glad I stayed and went to this visit.

“Doing Great”

My original surgery was done somewhere else.

Dr. K took over my care without question. He did surgery to fix the problem.

Been with him for 8 years and doing great.

Really trust him.

“Putting me back together”

My hip surgery was done by another doctor

I am not doing well and went to Dr. Kirschenbaum. He carefully did a whole bunch of tests and we figured out what was wrong.

I do need a second surgery but I am finally glad that someone spent the time to figure out what was wrong and recommend a solution.

I like him and his office and look forward to getting better.

“First time- Great!”

I went to see Dr. Kirschenbaum because I had pain in both of my knees. I am only 51 and did not want surgery. He examined me and had x-ray right in the office. He showed me I had arthritis but explained to me that there were a lot of things we could do to avoid surgery. He started me on a plan that I am really glad about.

“Helped me”

I was walking around with severe hip pain and he told me what I had- bursitis. He treated it and now it is gone. I went to many docs before him and no one could figure it out. Also the staff in the clinic is so helpful.

“Great office”

The office is so nice. There are not a lot of good offices in my area and the people in the front and the assistants in the back were helpful. Dr. K got an MRI on my knee. I may need surgery but the surgeons in the practice are great.

“Very thorough”

Dr. Kirschenbaum is a warm, caring doctor. I was sent to him because a lot of other doctors saw me for an arm problem and no one could figure out what was wrong. He get at it and I now know what is going on and getting the right treatment. I recommend him to everyone,

“Surgery later”

I am too heavy for knee replacement but Dr. K (it seems everyone calls him that) is staying with me and very concerned about my weight. He brings me back to check and soon I will be ready to get my knees replaced. He really cares.

“Good doctor”

Good doctor.

“My hip”

I went to a lot of other doctors before I saw him. They were not sure what to do and he reviewed my case really good. When the visit was finished I had a plan which was great. I am going to have my hip replaced and get out of pain. I liked him a lot. He spent time with me and talked to me about everything I needed to know. Thank you!

“5 and 6 years and doing great”

Dr. Kirschenbaum replaced both of my hips. The first in 2013 and the second in 2014. I can;t say enough how great a job he did. I have no pain and I am walking so much.

“Many years- my doctor!”

I started with him many years ago and he has helped me in so many ways. My hip is doing great after hip replacement surgery. He is always there for me.

“Really good explaining”

I did not need surgery but he spent a lot of time with me telling me what I had and how I can take care if it. Not a doctors do that.

“Great visit”

I came for my knee pain. I left with a full understanding of my problem and did not need surgery. Totally knows what he is doing. Very experienced.

“Solved my problem”

I am very thankful he was there for me in the community. I has severe pain in my knee and he got all the tests quickly. I am feeling better after this.

“Thank you!”

The doctor saw me on time and helped my completely with my knee pain when others did not. He is now MY DOCTOR!

“Patient for 10 years”

Since I have been dealing with his practice I have had good progress and feel much better with my hip. I did my research before I got here and everyone is great. I have been a patient for almost 10 years.

“Greatest”

He is the greatest surgeon in the world that I know. My hips are doing well. I thank him.

“Amazing!”

He is am amazing doctor. I don't know where I would be without you. You have an amazing staff. I love them all.

“Good bedside manner”

The doctor was very patient and answered all the questions that I had

“Phenomenal”

He is a nice and warm doctor.

“Excellent Explanations”

Dr. Kirschenbaum explains things to you in a way that you can understand.

“Now my other knee”

Many years ago, Dr. K did a partial knee replacement on my right knee. That knee is doing great. I just saw him for my left knee. I was really afraid that I was going to k=need a replacement again because even though I did so well I don't like the idea of surgery.

After an x-ray Dr K told me I did not need a knee replacement and I am being treated differently.

“My Knee”

My right knee, it has been bad for a long time. I don't know why and went to see Dr. K at a new clinic connected to the hospital.
He showed me all the problems I had with my knee and it all finally made sense why I was having trouble walking.
I am seeing another doctor at the hospital, Dr. Huang, who works with him so that I can get my knee replaced. I am thankful they are all there.

“Finally...getting my shoulder fixed”

For the past 2 years I went to a bunch of hospital clinics and doctors to get help for my shoulder. One of the places finally got an MRI but I then went to 7 more people who said they could not do anything.

I heard about the clinic at BronxCare and went to see Dr. K. He told me he was not a shoulder surgeon but had a lot of experience seeing shoulders in clinic. He examined me and took a good look at my MRI.

The best thing was that he showed me how his partner there will be able to fix the tear in my shoulder. He set me up with an appointment to see Dr. Allen soon.


This was great news and I appreciate the time he spent with me and the care he gave me.

“Helped me with the hip”

I have a bum hip. I went to a lot of doctors and this is the first one who really explained to me why I had to lose weight before the s=hip surgery. He gave me a slot of advice.

“Platelet Rich Plasma- Great!”

I had my left knee operated on but my right went to Dr. K for what are called platelet rich plasma PRP injections. He draws my own blood, puts the tube in a spinner and then pulls out some fluid that takes care of the inflammation in my knee. After three of these I am feeling amazing. Great that the office gives these kind of shots.

“Treating my knee pain without surgery”

Good doctor. He worked with me a long time to help get rid of my knee pain from arthritis without surgery, This is good for me because I can't have surgery now. He uses a new type of injection for the pain in the knee.

“I have a special problem he helped with”

Not many people have rheumatoid arthritis. I do and Dr. K really knew a lot about how different treatments can help me. He treated the arthritis I had in his specialty and sent me to hid hand surgeon for that. I am so glad they have so many =good doctors there.

“My knees are better now”

I showed up at a lot of different clinics and this was the best. The doctor saw me right away and knew my problem was knee arthritis. I was happy when he told me I did not need surgery. I am taking medications and sometimes get injections. I really am glad I started here,

“Saw in Clinic. Good doctor!”

I saw him in a clinic near his hospital. The hospital, I think, runs this clinic in Washington Heights. I had a thumb injury. He knew exactly what I had, even though I found out later he really is a hip and knee expert. Looks like he knows a lot more because he got me right to a hand doctor to fix my problem. Thank you.

“Injection in my knee”

I saw Dr. K for arthritis in my right knee. I did not want surgery. After I spoke with him he started injections and medications. Feeling better now.

“Came from other hospital, glad I did”

I had a leg injury and was treated at another hospital. My general doctor sent me to this doctor. I kind of waited in the office for a long time to see him but I know I was added onto his schedule. I almost left but glad I stayed. He knew exactly what was wrong and go me going the right way.

“Spent time, really good”

I came with a very hard problem to understand and he explained it to me very well. There is no question that he enjoys speaking to patients and helping them. He helped me a lot where others did not understand my problem. I am keeping him as my doctor.

“Hip Replacement”

For three years I was bounced around pain management clinics for my hip pain until someone recommended Dr. Kirschenbaum. I sent to him and after x-rays, he immediately made the diagnosis of hip arthritis. He told me I can go for a hip replacement and it would get rid of my pain. He knows a lot and is caring in the office.

“Success for many years”

I had both of my knee replacements done by Dr. K many years ago and just say him for a follow-up appointment. They are doing so great. I have no pain and he told me the x-rays look like the day he put the knee replacements in. I am really grateful that I chose him as my surgeon.

“Wasn't in a rush to recommend surgery”

I went to him and I knew I needed knee replacements but I thought I had more time before the surgery. Looks like I did. He really spent time going over my x-rays and choices for treatment. I am continuing to avoid surgery and feel so much better.

“A lot of problems solved”

I have a lot of problems with my body. I have rheumatoid arthritis and it hurts in my hands and my spine. Even though Dr. Kirschenbaum primarily treats hips and knees he examined all my joints and set me up with other doctors in the office for treatment. It was a pleasure meeting him and glad he put my case together like that

“Second time”

I had a my left knee done and now I returned for the right knee. Doing great. I really like the way the office is run. The people at the front desk are so friendly.

“Love my knee replacement”

Dr. K did my knee replacement 3-4 years ago and it is amazing. Just saw him for a follow up and he still is that same caring doc I remember on the last visit. I can do everything I want now with my knee. Still going strong.

“No surgery!”

I went to other doctors who said to have surgery. Dr. Kirschenbaum got a new MRI and I did not need surgery and I am feeling good.

“Helped me with my shoulder and knee”

I read reviews and thought this doctor would be okay for me. He was great. I had two problems. My shoulder and my knee. He really spent time with me asking me questions and examining me. I don't think there are a lot of doctors who spend this much time with patients and care like he does. Also =, the other doctors in his group are great.

“The Best”

Dr. Kirschenbaum, I call him Dr. K, replaced my hip many years ago. I have had such a good result and continue to be his patient (because I have other things). Great doctor and surgeon.

“Good with difficult problem”

I went to Dr. Kirschenbaum because I had a bad problem with my hip and both my knees. I saw other doctors and they were not like him. He spent a lot of time with me and I now know what I have. He set me up with treatment and I know I will get better.

“Caring”

I wanted s knee replacement and was overweight and he worked with me a lot to bring my weight down. Now I am ready to go. Patient and caring.

“Total trust”

I saw Dr. Kirschenbaum for problems with an operation done by someone else. He really explained my situation well and put together a plan that got me on the right track.

“Many Problems”

I have many medical problems and this was the first doctor who took his time with me to really help me, which he did. I know he mainly treats hips and knees but he knew a lot about my back pain which was good.

“Was Very clear in explanations”

I had knee pain for a long time. Dr. K took the time to do all the necessary tests to make sure he made the right diagnosis. Other doctors did not give me that much attention. What he told me, in the end, was 100% correct. This is the best I can ask for.

“Knee Replacement”

My knee replacement has no pain. I can do exercise. I am very happy with it.

“11 Years!”

He did my total knee replacement 11 years ago and I am very happy with it.

“The Best”

He is by far the best! I had a total knee replacement. He is very patient with me. Cordial and kind.

“Excellent service”

Ewcommwnd him to anybody. Excellent care.
