My mom was having horrible knee pain and Feiwell decided to do some type of knee surgery. He was completely rude to me and my mom when we tried to ask him any type of question about the procedure. Anyway, her knee pain has continued until now a whole year after the knee surgery Feiwell did so my mom finally went to someone else for a second opinion only to be told that Feiwell should not have even bothered with the arthroscopy and did not prescribe her appropriate medication. Very disappointed.

I had two surgeries done with Dr Feiwell within a year. He took his time to come up with options for me. He was very patient and did a great job explaining all my options. I felt like he honestly cared about getting me back on my feet and back to work. I def recommend him to anyone who wants a great Dr that will deliver great results. Thank you Dr Feiwell. L.A.C

In January I had ACL and Meniscus Surgery performed by Dr.Feiwell. He did an outstanding job
because surgery went very well and I don't even have scars. I would recommend Dr. feiwell to family and friends because he knows his stuff and is a straight shooter. He tells it like it is.

I saw Dr, Feiwell a month ago complaining about a knee problem. I received a cortisone injection. I came back a month later with my knee feeling much better. We discussed having another injection in two months. We also discussed having an injection that would give my knee some cushion and more flexibility. This will be done down the road if the cortisone isn't effective. I have been coming o Dr; Feiwell for almost 15 years and would highly recommend him to anyone! Also, love his nurses!

I recently saw Dr. Feiwell due to a ruptured achilles. During our initial meeting he proposed two courses of action: surgical and non-surgical, and provided me with the benefits and risks of each. In the end, I went with his recommendation of the non-surgical route. During this whole process, Dr. Feiwell kept my expectations realistic so that I had realistic goals I could meet through my rehab and answered any questions I had during our checkups. I am not 100% back to where I want to be but I am well on my way and am extremely pleased with the care I received from Dr. Feiwell.

I am a patient of Dr.Feiwell for eighteen years when he did a hip replacement. It was so successful I was back to work in six weeks with no pain. He has cared for me recently for a fractured shoulder. Under his direction I was able to avoid surgery and have returned to normal activity. He is direct and honest in his communications. I trust his judgment and greatly appreciate his excellent care. His humor in a trying condition helps to calm one's anxieties, and I feel secure with him as my Ortho Doc!

Dr. Feiwell has seen me through two scilastic implants, one in each foot - my great toes were both bone-on-bone, and I could barely walk. Now, my feet feel fantastic, and I go to him for all my orthopedic needs. Have pretty arthritic joints, and he uses various non-invasive therapies to correct and minimize pain. Thanks to him, I am able to jog again!

Dr. Feiwell accurately diagnosed my daughter's ankle injury and plotted a straight course for repair/recovery. She is now back out on the soccer field stronger than ever and 2 weeks earlier than anticipated. We are so thrilled with the care and concern that Dr. Feiwell supplied and we look forward to seeing our daughter walk with confidence and pose up and down the stairs at her upcoming graduation! The office staff was always kind, courteous and efficient, making every office visit a pleasant experience! We cannot thank all of them enough!

Although I only have known Dr. Fiewell through my doctors visits...he reassured me BEFORE I had my surgery that I would be doing better than I was when I walk into his office (using a cane). (another doctor had supposely fix the torn and left me in alot of pain), Thanks to Dr. Fiewell and the recomendation to have the correct physical theraphy I needed......I have not taken one PAIN PILL after surgery, have NO need for a cane and I'm back to work. Thank you Dr. Fiewell for using your years of hard studying, and putting what you have learn into practice. Great Staff also.

This dr is horrible. I would recommend going elsewhere. He will make you 1 hour after your appointment and not answer any questions. He ordered the wrong test for me and i had to pay $985.00 for his error. His staff is even worse. They will not called you back. They will not refill prescriptions over the phone. They made me wait three weeks before calling me back to tell me if I had a life threating disease that they had the information in there office for three weeks and told me they had it. Please go elsewhere are you are going to be sorry.
