Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Hip and knee replacement
He has a caring and compassionate manner, with a great sense of humor. He demands the highest standards to prevent infection and pain. The pre-surgery cyro-neurolysis decreased pain in PT. I required nothing more than an anti-inflammatory, an analgesic and aspirin. I recommend him to everyone I know who needs a knee or hip replacement.

It is self evident that Dr Ginther has a passion for his work and shares that with his patients by diligently explaining his analysis and subsequent recommendations for one's condition. He personally related my knee issue to his own personal similar situation which gave me greater confidence in his conclusions.

Based on outstanding recommendations, I specifically requested that it be Dr Ginther to replace my hip. I was so satisfied with my range of motion, pain control right after and now 3 months later that I traveled to have him replace my knee also! It was forever worth the trip! His pain management techniques and surgical techniques have meant I’ve had no need for narcotics! My knee has a far above average bend angle just days out of surgery. Three months later, my hip has full and completely pain free motion! My knee is well on its way to the same after just a few days! Even from the moment I woke up from each surgery, my pain was significantly less than before my surgery! What a life changing relief!! Dr Ginther has changed my life! I even wish I hadn’t waited as long as I did. Just go to him for your hip and knee replacements! Travel as far as you need to. You’ll never regret it!

DR. Ginther is the best doctor I have ever had an experience with. Dr. Ginther was up front helpful, knowledgeable and very pleasant. One thing that stands out is I would say to him yeah o.k. I guess, and he wanted to make sure you understood the whole procedure. The best part was I ask him if he could give at least a 75% chance of a successful hip replacement and he told he would give a 99% chance. Dr. Ginther has done both my hips and I have no complaints whatsoever.

Dr G is one of the most caring and kind doctor’s I know . He replaced my knees and my right shoulder. He saved both my sister and my daughter’s leg,after another doctor messed them up. I would trust him because he cares enough to make sure things are done right.

Yes. The doctor is personal and an exemplary professional. He exudes knowledge, skill, and empathy. After our visit, we were very relieved to know that we’ll have the best available surgeon and team applying their state of the art craft in order to give me a much better knee and a higher quality of life.

Dr. Ginther treated me after I was hit by a semi 12/04/2001, I cannot tell you how thankful I am that Dr. Ginther and his staff helped me to walk again. In my opinion you won’t find a more caring Surgeon, or staff that really cares. Dr. Ginther is always up to date on the most current procedures to speed up recovery time.
