Workers Comp adjusters kept denying my surgery but Dr. Ferkel never gave up. I eventually got my surgery and am on the road to recovery. Dr . Ferkel also acted promptly on some concerning signs I exhibited after surgery and quite literally saved my life (blot clots identified and dealt with before they had a chance to break free and become a pulmonary embolism).

He is highly responsive, and personable. In addition to the surgery he recommended several dietary and supplement protocols to aid in recovery. He has an automatic daily checkin so I communicate directly without having to go to the site. When I was having a problem after hours, he was on the phone to me in 8 minutes.

My overall experience was great. Unfortunately, my surgery had to be placed on hold from March to July due to the COVID-19 Pandemic. However, once the hospital began scheduling I received a date right away. If I had any questions Jenny was there to provide answers and assisted with the clearance process. After my surgery, if I had any questions they were answered right away through the GetWell Loop. When I needed to speak with Dr. Ferkel I requested it through the GetWell Loop and he contacted me right away.

Dr Eric Ferkel communicated by phone after hours and made it clear I needed surgery on my knee and moved forward with making it happen since it was a bad break. He worked hard at working with my insurance and made sure I was taken care of well.
