Over the years i have been treated by Dr Kimball for knee pain, a broken ankle and most recently a torn rotator cuff ligament. Each treatment resolved with improved condition. Each time he emphasized that surgery is not the first option & ordered physical therapy as the first treatment. The first two resolved without surgery. The last would only resolve with surgery since the ligament was completely detached. Since the surgery & PT I have regained full range of motion & still working on strength. He knows what he’s doing.

The guy is useless. Avoid him at all costs. Had to cancel my surgery with him because he cant even listen to patients during a consultation. He didnt have a full understanding of the situation so the surgery needed to be canceled. The whole experience with him was terrible. His staff are a pleasure but the man himself is pretty useless. Stay away.
