Patient Reviews
Nov 28, 2024
I’d been followed at another practice for nine years, seeing a PA that I liked, receiving steroid shots every three months until my hip got to be bone on bone and they told me I’d have to be off the steroids for three months before I could schedule a surgery date. After the three month wait, I called to schedule and found I’d have three more months to wait so I decided to switch practices. I saw Dr Krenzel on my first visit. He totally explained the procedure, told me he’d done 4000 hip replacements, went over my concerns, then handed me over to his care team that includes a PA, a PT, and a scheduler. I’d told the other practice I’d take a cancellation and could come at any time. They said that would be impossible. I told Dr Krenzl’s scheduler the same thing and while I was standing at her desk, she said, “Wait! A cancellation just came in. How about January 2?” This group is a great practice and I’m confident that Dr Krenzel will get me back to walking with ease.
