The best Dr i ever had, listened to my concerns n always has a positive plan for treatment. Can’t say enough about this guy, Really the best!
Dr. Lingenfelter's knowledge, bedside manor coupled with all thinga medical is superb rating is a 10 for me.
Takes the time to listen to your symptoms. Doesn’t just rely on MRI imaging.
Personable and professional. I’ve been going to 1st State Orthopedics for years, and Dr. Lingenfelter is very good, like all the people at 1st. State Orthopedics. Won’t go anywhere else.
I have been a patient of doctor lingen felter in the past, and a one hundred percent was extremely pleased with his work.
Very knowledgeable and patient
Best Dr ever!
Great personality, very confident and provides a strong since competence. After our session i left with a since of hope for improvement. He gave a great explanation of my condition and paths for treatment.
I have never met a doctor that was so efficient and beyond his specialty in patient care. I would recommend Dr. Lingenfelter over and over. You will not get a better surgeon well rounded in every way! He looks at the whole picture.
Dr. Lingenfelter is very personable and takes his time to explain your results from images, as well as the options for treatment. He is highly recommended.
