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.

I had total knee replacement with an "off-the-shelf knee" in 2016." My surgery May 12 with Dr. Kimball was night to day different. I was only in the hospital overnight but felt strong and happy I chose Dr. Kimball for this surgery. I have healed faster and my mobility is stellar. Getting this made to fit knee has been the best decision I ever made. I have enjoyed knowing Dr. Kimball and recognize his skill. The man is a genius. So thankful my horrid kned pain is gone and I'm reclaiming my life. Thank you Dr. Kirt Kimball! You are a rock star!

Dr. Kimball was very professional and explained everything to me thoroughly. He did an amazing job in fixing my knee. I would definitely refer anyone to him.

There was a time when I trusted Dr. Kimball completely, right up to my last visit actually, but when I told him how I felt and he told me I didn't actually feel that way, it all changed. My first partial went great but the second one still hurts. It hasn't healed properly and it's swollen all of the time, only according to Dr. Kimball, it isn't. I don't know if you've ever been in pain all day every day but it messes with your head. I already felt on the verge of insanity and didn't need the one person I trusted to help me through it to completely disregard my feelings. My knee hurts worse now than it did before the surgery but apparently there's nothing to be done. It's been a very disappointing experience!

If I could pour out gratitude in eternal amounts, I would head to this guys office in a heartbeat. When we first went to Dr. Kimball's office, Hailey was 5 years old. This is when he found her OCD lesion which was incredible since it wasn't normal for someone her age. It was something that would be easy to miss for most surgeons. As soon as she broke her leg in February and the MRI results got sent to the office at Revere Health, he called the next morning telling me to bring her in immediately. He has given Hailey the absolute best attention to her treatment that we could have asked for. She would count down the days for her appointments! Today, she was given a clean bill of health, provided she continue with physical therapy. Hailey immediately said "no!" and got very emotional leaving his office. When we were driving home, she said "I want to break my leg again so I have a reason to go back! That's some amazing doctor/patient care. I cannot say enough good about Dr. Kimball.

I have been very happy with Dr. Kimball. He answered all my questions and explained everything before my knee replacement. I liked his approach to this surgery and that it was a custom knee built just for me. I am 3 months post op and I am back to my normal schedule. Compared to my 1st knee replacement that was done by another Dr. it was a piece of cake! I could not be happier with my new knee. I feel great! Dr. Kimball is very competent and will be fixing my first knee when I am ready!

Dr. Kimball excels in the latest surgical techniques that offer faster recovery with greater success than other Utah doctors are willing to try. I did my homework and when talking about the latest implant techniques Dr. Kimball uses, another highly recognized doctor in Utah County said, "I don't do that procedure. We let Dr. Kimball figure out the new stuff. Once he knows how to do it well, the rest of us will follow suit." I was back in Karate 4 weeks after my total knee replacement!

As mentioned by a previous review, Dr. Kimball is very knowledgeable, but I also found him condescending. The few times I saw him he would say that I am overweight and that I need to get skinnier repeatedly throughout the appointments. He didn't want to hear how years and years of horseback riding may have contributed to my knee damage. That being said, he did a great job with the arthroscopy, however he did not offer physical therapy, which would have helped tremendously with heal time.

While Dr Kimball is a very knowledgeable and skilled surgeon his self superior attitude towards others was a real turn of for me. He was condescending towards me and didn't seem to care about what I was needing post surgery. It was all his agenda. The work he did on my shoulder was fantastic and beyond what I had hoped for. I just wouldn't go back.
