Dr Ferkel has been the best on my repetitive motion work knee injury! It is a workers comp case! He has treated me for at least 7 months! We tried PT and strengthened the knee but it was just not right! He did arthroscopic surgery and repaired the LCL tear and found arthritis due to my 26 years on my job! He cleaned out the meniscus and has given me a chance to get back to walking normally without pain! He is young… but a true professional! I am so glad he is my Dr!!! I am looking forward to PT and healing!

Dr. Ferkel did my foot surgery and I was very satisfied and he takes extra care with his patient. He does check up on you even on the weekend after surgery. He listen and he is very good and thorough in explaining your medical concern. He also has an excellent staff, that will assist and help you along the way. Highly recommended.

Dr. Ferkel has been responsive and caring. I have absolute faith in his diagnosis and treatment, which has not always been the case with other physicians over the years.

Professional, personable and extremely experienced and knowledgeable. Dr. Ferkel and his team gave me great confidence going into the surgery and very responsive to post-op questions/concerns via the get well loop. I’m still in my cast so I’m not done yet but my experience thus far has been excellent.

I had ten years of ankle pain due to a basketball injury. Dr. Ferkel explained what he could do clearly and I gave him a chance. Now, I am free!

I've been seeing Dr. Ferkel since November of 2019 in regards to a foot/ankle injury and he's been excellent as is his team of people. Every visit is always good and my surgery went well.

Dr.Ferkel is a great surgeon and did an amazing job at reconstructing my ACL and meniscal tear. I had no complications and the recovery went smoothly with very minimal pain. He was communicative during the entire process. The only downside was trying to get in contact with someone in his office. It would take his assistant more than a few days to return a call, if at all.

The overall medical team of Dr Ferkel has been kind, sympathetic and honest. Dr Ferkel took on the challenge to help me with arthroscopic surgery to repairing my knee from affecting my walk and lifestyle. So far it's been a positive venture.

Dr. Eric Ferkel took the time to listen to my issues and also to explain exactly the procedures he would be performing on my toes. I have had three prior surgeries on my toes and my last Doctor told me I just had to live with the pain and there was nothing he could do to repair it.
Doctor Ferkel didn’t give me false hope he told me the facts, I truly appreciated that.
Thank you Dr. Eric Ferkel!
