He took his time and explained what expect for a partial knee replacement and the after care.
Jun-2024
Saw too many people when the X-ray tech and the doctor were all they were needed. Dr could have done the fall assessment in 2 minutes no extra person or fee needed. Didn’t need to see doctors asst either. Too much duplication and waste of time and my money

Mar-2024
Dr Knapke is an awesome surgeon and his follow through after surgery was commendable. He and his staff demonstrate an earnest concern for you by listening and providing the right treatment for you. I highly recommend him.
Mar-2024
First impression of physician is optimistic and trustworthy. We have only had one visit, and while MD was agreeable to surgery, the office planning team has not assisted for 2 days. So, thus far, uncertain future.
Mar-2024
Office super busy! Roomed 1 hr after appt time and another hr before leaving.
Made appt almost 2 months ago and requested to see Dr. Knapke, but Kyle saw me. I do like Kyle and Joel, but had hoped to see Dr. K.
X-Rays and Kyle said he tho't my back was causing knee and hip issues. Referred me to Dr. Vibert. He did recommend a muscle relaxant and I will try that.
Also, told to put on those ridiculous paper shorts. WHY?
The wait was way too long to be seen.
Mar-2024
Waited over an hour to be called in for initial consult.

Jan-2024
Hoping after hip surgery I can get rid of the bursitis & burning in my groin.
Jan-2024
This is a very well run office with a wonderful staff. I was scheduled for a knee injection today but I wrongly went to the Shelby office instead of the Troy office. The office staff was very helpful, notified the Troy office and then fit me into the Shelby office schedule. The PA Kyle was friendly & professional and gave me the injection I was hoping for. Even though it was my mistake, they had me in and out of the office in less than 15 minutes. Thank you. I’m very appreciative.

My two surgeries by Dr. Knapke have been perfect - easy recovery and great results. Now I’m scheduling a third surgery by him.
Dec-2023
I actually waited three months to get an appointment with him. When I came in today, they gave me another Cortizone shot which was good but I did not get to see Dr. Knapke. The nurse told me he would come in to say hi and he never came in after waiting for forty five minutes and I had to leave. I think the front desk was extremely friendly, but the PA was not that friendly. He seemed uninterested. I made the appointment with with Dr. Knapke and I never got to see him. I feel badly telling you this but overall It was not a good experience.

Sep-2023
Only saw the PA
Aug-2023
Excellent doctor who I have the utmost respect. PA also very kind and knowledgeable. Front desk staff leaves a lot to be desired , not a good representation of the upscale practice. The tattoos are so unprofessional.
Aug-2023
I was seen by a PA, not Dr. Knapke, so I really can't comment on this doctor. His reviews are excellent so if I ever actually need to see him instead of a PA I imagine he would get 5 stars.
Aug-2023
Explained things well
Aug-2023
Dr. Knapke is the reason I am about to be an active person. He completed my partial knee replacements 5 years ago and I am a different person now.

Dr. Knapke was very informative I felt confident in him.
Aug-2023
Everyone was pleasant and very efficient
Jul-2023
Dr. Knapke listened to my individual situation & did not minimize my concerns. He ultimately referred me to a different surgeon within the group based on a tattoo that I have that I really did not want scarred, if at all avoidable. He advised there were other great surgeons within the practice that have a different entry point to the hip that could avoid scarring my tattoo. I was slightly embarrassed to even ask about avoiding the tattoo & he was so gracious in providing me with another option.
Aug-2023
Although I had to wait a bit to see him, Dr. Knapke took as much time with me as I needed to answer all my questions, and was very attentive and patient.
Jul-2023
Competent, compassionate, caring & any other positive words that could be used for a 100% review. Dr. Knapke took his time & was truly listening to my concerns. He has exceeded his good reputation with me. Would highly recommend him.

Dr Knapke made me feel comfortable, assured me nothing was damaged with my knee. Offered a cortisone injection and made that nearly painless. He said my knee is bone on bone but did not pressure me to have it replaced abd instead said, when you’re ready we will do it. He also did my first knee replacement in 2010 and that was a gods experience as well. Thank you De.Knapke.

Apr-2023
New patient - my first visit to this provider. Did not see doc but saw the “PA” I guess. He did not introduce himself. Did not mention I would not be seeing doctor Knapke. “PA” didn’t seem to be interested in details of my issue - maybe not necessary after reviewing X-rays. I received injection in knee but was not told about possible reactions; nor was I told to continue or discontinue what I was doing on my own for relief - heat / ice packs / or Advil/Tylenol.
Never met the doctor but others of the staff i interfaced with were great. Friendly, efficient, knowledgeable.
Apr-2023
Very thorough. Took the time to answer my questions. Was very reassuring.

Apr-2023

He was very thoughtful and extremely knowledgeable about helping me solve my knee issues. He certainly inspires confidence.

Dr. Knapke seemed to be in a great hurry even though there I only saw 1 other patient. I felt like he'd decided on a treatment when he looked at the Xray and didn't hear what I said. Nothing was said about a return visit or what to do when the treatment didn't work.
Nov-2022

Dr Knapke is very kind and knowledgeable regarding my knee replacement surgery. He performed a Total Knee Replacement on my left knee in July and will be performing the same on my right knee in November. At this visit today he answered all my questions patiently. I highly recommend him for knee surgery.

Mar-2022
Surgeon is excellent but staff is not which results in negative experience.
Apr-2022
I would be happy to rate Dr. Knapke but never saw him. Joel, P.A. to Dr. Knapke was fine, and I was happy enough with my visit, but the office should be honest with who one is seeing. Also, the two hour wait for 30 minutes worth of Xray and assessment was not fun.
Apr-2022
Dr. Knapke was very nice and explained things well.

I saw Dr Knapke’s PA and found him to be caring, and competent. He took his time to answer my questions and I appreciated his kind manner.
Feb-2022
Completely amazed with the entire experience. The registration was fast and efficient. Pam our nurse came to get our x ray disc and tell us where to go next as we were completing registration. We waited in the exam room Not more than a few minutes for the doctor after Pam completed her intake interview. Dr Knapke was great with his exam and explanation of the X-ray and suggested a procedure to resolve my issue. Not more than 45 minutes from the time we entered to building until we walked out with surgery scheduled. Awesome positive experience. 10 stars for everyone in the office
Feb-2022
Very impressed
Feb-2022
The appointment was made that i would be seen by Dr. Knapke since Joel, NP was not available. I was hoping to see Dr. Knapke and was disappointed that he had no time to see me especially since the appointment was made to be seen by him
Feb-2022
the PA i saw was great

Very friendly, explained things & options thoroughly.
Dr. Donald Knapke, MD is fellowship-trained at the Rush-Presbyterian Hospital – Adult Joint Reconstruction. He earned their medical degree from the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine and completed their residency at William Beaumont Hospital – Orthopaedic Surgery.
Dr Knapke as always was very attentive and informative, explaining what was going on with my knee. He reassured me and eased my worried thoughts.
I saw PA Kyle but my issue didn’t require a procedure or surgery so that was fine with me
It was very confident on the successful outcome and pain management which was my number one concern.
Always professional, perfect counsel! Thank you.
He took his time and explained what expect for a partial knee replacement and the after care.
Saw too many people when the X-ray tech and the doctor were all they were needed. Dr could have done the fall assessment in 2 minutes no extra person or fee needed. Didn’t need to see doctors asst either. Too much duplication and waste of time and my money
First visit spoke with his PA who was very informative and listened and answered all questions. The entire team was very pleasant. A very good experience from start to finish.
I never met him but staff very nice
Great guy. Very personable
Answered all questions didn’t feel rushed
