Dr Menkowitz just did my knee...full replacement with minimal pain or discomfort....he does not use stitches or staples so you don't look like Frankenstein ! I was back on my feet & doing normal house chores within a week. No walker, minor cane use & fully functional in 10 days. I was amazed!! He did my hip 3 years ago with the same incredible results. read more

Back to see Dr. Menkowitz again. He is recommending knee surgery. Since last visit, the office has been completely updated and radiology upgraded. He carefully explained how my hip was healing, and took time to show me that my knees needed work. I will update the review as I go through the process. So far, everything is good read more

I used Dr Menkowitz several times in 2017 for a recurring hip condition. Each office visit always started with at least a 30-45 minute wait after my appointment time. In some cases I had early morning appointments. The practice had 3 women running the front end so there is no excuse for this. When I saw the doctor, I had scans and tests but no results. After 3 months of seeing him, I waited over a year after losing 30 pounds to try to help my situation. I scheduled an appointment for 2:50pm on May 22nd. I had to miss a school event with my son but decided the pain I was experiencing was too great to reschedule. I checked in early and waited 1 1/2 hours! Others came in after me & were seen! I left the office before seeing the doctor. I told the front end personnel in no uncertain terms my frustration. They really didn't care and showed no compassion. I scheduled an appointment at a competent orthopedic specialist and will NEVER set foot in this office again. If you value your time, you shouldn't either! read more

I was referred to Dr. Menkowitz to treat a ruptured Achilles tendon and was extremely disappointed. The office was painfully slow and overloaded. I waited over 45 minutes for both my appointments and the staff had endless problems trying to process my paperwork. Dr. Menkowitz did NOT seem to make my care a priority. I eventually got a 2nd opinion and had my surgery done by a different doctor at another ortho place. I regret wasting my time at this office and I'm convinced the delays impacted my overall recovery time dramatically. read more

Great job on my wrist - I have a lot of confidence in Dr. Menkowitz. The problem is that the office over books the appointments. I've waited just under three hours from the time of my appointment until Dr Menkowitz enters the exam room. Two times. This was not a fluke. The receptionist says "call before you leave to find out if the Dr is running late". I do, and they give a totally unreasonable estimate of how late he is running. It might make the office feel better about leaving patients sit for hours, but it's really no help. This is so inconsiderate I doubt that I will use Menkowitz for any future surgeries. read more

Dr. Menkowitz is the reason I can walk. His skill is matched only by his concern and compassion. When my husband suffered a bad bicycle accident, Dr. Menkowitz demonstrated his conservative approach as a surgeon. He does not recommend of perform surgery unless he is certain that it is necessary. He emphasizes physical therapy to guide his patients to the most complete recovery possible. He has been my doctor for 30 years. There is no one else I would trust if I needed orthopedic care. read more

I recently returned to see Dr. Menkowitz. I have not seen him for about five years and had to update my current info. From the time I walked in to the time I was finished, was about one hour. That included updating the info, being taken to an exam room, speaking with his nurse, getting a series of x-rays and being examined by the doctor. His staff was friendly and helpful. He is a very good doctor. He answered all my questions and was not in a hurry to see the next patient as some doctors seem to do. I definitely would recommend this doctor. read more
