Just a little quick on the visit. I would’ve liked to spend at least a few more minutes talking to him about my options
I went in for my ankle pain and Dr Gruner spent maybe a minute with me and did not conduct any tests of my ankle mobility to try to pin point the issue. He simply said I have some arthritis on my ankle based on the x rays and said to put an ankle brace on and go from there. I thought he would come back to tell me how long to wear it and what kind of exercises to do or avoid or even the next steps. However he never returned and only the tech came in to put the ankle brace on.
Took his time with me. He explained everything thoroughly. I left feeling I got the proper care.
Dr. Gruner is an excellent surgeon. He explained the procedure, asked if I had any questions and told me to let him know if I was experiencing any pain at any time during the procedure. I did not experience any pain as he gave the injections for the nerve block. Only pressure. And I did not experience any pain during the procedure. Dr. Gruner did ask me several times during the procedure if I was alright. I was. He told me when he was going to remove the instrument and when he was bandaging. His nurse assistant also told me what she was doing. Dr. Gruner told me it was over, that he was pleased with the results and that I did well. He then reviewed my post op instructions and the nurse applied the brace and also gave me instructions. Dr. Gruner and the nurse both reviewed my post op instructions with my daughter and my post op appointment was made by the receptionist. Dr. Gruner and his staff are so very kind and compassionate.
Dr. Gruner took time to explain my tests so I was informed and understood my entire situation and the right path forward in my treatment.
Compassionate,intuitive, caring, responsive, knowledgeable, and therapeutic in achieving positive results in his medical applications.
Very skilled and professional Physician. The procedure he gave me was painless and this is typically extremely painful. I highly recommend hom
Great explanation of procedure and expected results. Painless steroid injection that brought immediate relief. Organized office, no wait time, all staff polite and friendly.
Very professional and explained everything
