Caught him in 3 lies
I have zero trust in Dr Kindl. I have caught him in 3 lies. In my patient portal he stated twice that we went over ice and heat therapy when in reality he said nothing about that. After being misdiagnosed, I have a broken bone in my shoulder. Once again in my portal he stated that he showed me exercises to do when in fact he told me not to lift anything heavy and if something hurt to stop doing it. If Dr Kindl lied about these 3 little things I have 0 doubt that he wouldn’t lie about bigger things. He may be a great doctor put I’m not sticking around to find out. Did he think I was so stupid that I wouldn’t look at my portal and catch him in a lie?

Everyone from Erica at the Front Desk to Brittany and Ashley as the Medical Team were patient, courteous and compassionate. Dr Kindl himself, actually listened and after reviewing all the information, gave a diagnosis and discussed what it meant for my recovery. Truly grateful for such great medical care & personnel in this time of pandemic.

I couldn't make an appointment because his receptionist is very rude. I'm sorry, but when a new patient calls crying, you don't just abruptly interrupt and place the call on hold.

Dr. Kindl was truly a great help when my mom needed hip surgery. Not only did he take the time to explain to our family what was happening and why, he made sure he placed my mom with an orthopedic surgeon that specialized in her needs and followed up with me after just in case I had any questions or concerns. Dr. Kindl is an exceptional orthopedic doctor and will be my #1 choice for all of my family's future orthopedic needs!

Im Kevin Hernandez, Im 59 and my wrist was shattered and in bad shape. Dr. Kindl called and offed to do a Volar Plate Proceedure. Its 3 weeks ater surgery, and my wrist is coming along fine. I got a look at my x rays a few days ago, and what I saw was a masterpiece. Dr. Kindl is an artist at surgical proceedures. I highly recommend him for any ortho surgery. And him, Hes COOL COOL COOL
