He made my son’s day by asking if I was grandma or mom (apparently I’m an older mom). I’ll probably never live this one down.🤣 He explained everything very well and seemed very experienced.

I think he is fantastic and his staff are just as fantastic.

Did not actually see Dr. Kumar, but his PA, Rachel, was phenomenal! She made me feel very comfortable and showed that she prioritized my health and desires over anything else.

He was Exellent ! He was Straight To the Point and Very Informed, What He Didn't know He Provided us with Another Dr. Who can Help , Me and My wife appreciated this. Thanks a Million

Patient was expecting Dr Kumar.

It was a pleasure to see Dr. Kumar. He was very informative and thorough in his assessment. The office location was very convenient and offered full service (MRI, X-rays, etc) which were all managed on the same day.

I considered a few very qualified doctors for my ACL reconstruction surgery. I chose Dr. Kumar because he cares about you as a person, not just a patient, and really wants to help people return to the activities that give us joy. I’m 6 months post-op now and had my final appointment and all-clear today. A big thanks to the whole team (Rachel and Hailey) who made this process as stress-free as possible.

Doc was empathetic to my extreme pain level yesterday and spent quality time with consulting. Great if he can give same day or same week appointments in the future, challenging time to wait for the actual appointment.

Amazing bedside manner, easy to talk with about the problem! Highly recommend!

Dr. Kumar was very caring towards my needs. He explained everything thoroughly to my understanding. This is my first time here and I’m super impressed.

Dr.Kumar has been amazing throughout my ACL and Meniscus surgery, he’s extremely knowledgeable and I trust his work and staff fully.

Dr. Kumar is the best physician I have ever been to. He is so personable and explains everything so thoroughly without being patronizing. I would recommend him to everyone.

Personable, timely feedback, no frills. Confident.

Dr Kumar was amazing. I was so scared to go to this appointment because of what he would say but I felt so comfortable with him. He took his time with me and answered all of my questions. I loved him. Awesome bedside manner.

Dr Kumar is excellent and was very attentive to my needs

He is a great doctor and I say this because he is very attentive and informative with his patients. He explained my xrays and broken arm and the healing process.

Dr Kumar is such a caring doctor. He REALLY listens to you . He walks into the room and it’s like your best friends. That’s how comfortable he makes you feel.

Amazing physician, he doesn’t goes off what is on the paper, he actually try to find the issue

He’s always very personable and truly seems motivated to see how I’m doing after my hip surgery. He explains things well and takes the extra minute if I have questions. He seems interested in my health not just as a job but as a colleague in this journey together.

Explains, listens, WANTS TO HELP, caring.and PROFESSIONAL.

Excellent service and he makes you feel like family.

Very attentive and thorough!

We came up with a game plan collectively on best way forward for my hip. In this case it was surgery. My issue wasn’t going to be fixed with PT. He communicated honestly all the risks and potential outcome - enough for me to make an informed decision. He is an excellent surgeon and I had a positive outcome - returning to doing all those activities I love.

Dr Kumar posseses a high technical aptitude as indicated by my surgery results and pre-surgery consultations combined with a very comfortable personal nature to make visits very easy and productive.

Dr. Kumar was great. The exam was thorough and he explained everything and he explained the next steps.

Very efficient and listened to all of my concerns

Very good.. Treatment was very professional. I recommend this doctor. He is one of the best in the country.

Dr. Kumar is not just an amazing doctor, but he does an outstanding job not just explaining your diagnosis, he additionally provides you with several options to best fit your goals for recovery.

Very honest, straight forward and respectful.

Very through in his initial assessment!!!

Basically wasted my time going there. He referred me to a spine specialist.

Very pleasant young man So pleased to have such a great surgeon do my surgery. Thank you so much Doctor Kumar!!

He took his time and explained everything to me so we could have a plan of action.

Wonderful doctor, was able to diagnose my shoulder very quickly

Excelencia y muy profesionales en su atención! El ambiente es muy organizado y eficaz! Gracias por su servicio. Altamente recomendado!

Excellent listening, good communication and I never felt rushed.

Didn't give me enough time to ask some questions I had

Dr Kumar went out of his way to make a televisit with me prior to the hurricane coming so I would have information if my appt got canceled due to the storm. He was so informative and helpful! I am so impressed! Thanks so much!

Cool guy. Very professional and knowledgeable. Thanks Doc.

Great surgeon! Very knowledgeable.

Terrific doctor-listens, cares, takes his time.

Very professional and helpful

good doctor

Dr. Kumar is the BEST!!! He takes time to listen to you first then come up with a plan, with you, to get better/treated. He explains everything in an easy to understand way.

Doctor was nice and thorough but towards the end of the appointment he said he would be right back and left. He never came back and we were told he was running behind and couldn’t talk anymore. So my concerns were not addressed.

He's a very good and patient doctor who wants what's best for the patient. He takes his time to explain information to the patient while being open and honest about the outcome of things.

Very personable and thorough.

He took time to explain my problem and informed me about what could be done.

Very personable, friendly and took the time to explain everything about my injury and post surgery.

Everything is great from scheduling to seeing the doctor and the staff except the wait time at the office is too long. I showed up 20 minutes prior to my appointment time and already did online check in the day before but still had to wait almost 40 minutes at the office to see the doctor. Besides the wait time, everything else went pretty quickly.

Absolutely wonderful . He explains everything in detail and makes sure all questions are answered before you leave

Dr. Kumar was excellent. This was my first visit with him and he was amazing actually the entire staff was so kind and quick. Thank you FOP for such good service

Took the time to explain all my options and made me feel good about my decision.

Dr. Kuma is always professional and thorough. I love working with his staff.

Great

Dr. Kumar was prepared for the appointment having reviewed relative materials. He was attentive to my verbalized concerns and he was clear with his recommendations.

He fixed me! Mr. Kumar is a very kind man and I have had a great experience with him as my surgeon!

Very personable and clear when setting expectations.

the best doctor I know...........

Very personable & knowledgeable

Dr. Kumar was great. He explained my options, the path forward, and did so in a personable way.

Patient and thorough. He came highly recommended through my wife who has worked with him.

He is an excellent orthopedic surgeon!! I was running late do to my husband running out of gas. He went on and saw me. Very considerate!!

Great personality. Very likable. Good doctor

It's really to early to tell, I like the bedside manner and sense of humor paired with professionalism

i would probably have rated him higher, but I only met him today.

I have a preexisting knee injury and explained it is not my first time dealing with this. Instead of exploring the internal aspects of the knee they simply did X-rays to get money because they had no hope of finding cause for pain in addition they wanted me to purchase another knee brace, which should be obvious I have several of. I would not recommend this treatment to anyone who has a internal knee injury. I explained that there were no bone issues prior to X-rays

Dr. Is very nice and explains everything really well.

Friendly and Very professional

He is a great Dr. He is Very good care and professionalism. I have left happy.

Nice office Dr is great

Extremely knowledgeable. He was able to narrow the issue quickly with my hip and provide immediate treatment.

He explained everything so well to me and he made sure that I understood it.

Amazing team. This place is top notch all around

I had a very poor experience with a previous doctor and was referred to Dr. Kumar. This was the best decision I could have made! Dr. Kumar listened to everything I had to say and explained everything to me prior to doing anything. He and his PA Rachel have been incredible in my recovery! I could not recommend them enough!

Great knowledge and bedside manners I will recommend him.

My first timing seeing doctor Kumar and he was amazing. Made me feel comfortable and at ease. Thank you.

I can’t say enough great things about my experience with Dr. Kumar. I’m an active duty military officer of 27 years. I have pushed my body in training and in service for years. My recent knee problems were too much to work through so I met and discussed options with him. First of all I was pleased to discuss my continued activity first and foremost. Dr. Kumar emphasized that our options are to keep me active and I appreciated that. Second his demeanor and relatability made me feel comfortable with my procedure. Lastly I have to mention that this is the second orthopedic surgery with the Florida Orthopedic Institute and the entire staff is amazing. They care, plain and simple.

He was very professional and explained what my issue was and how we were going to proceed. I received a cortisone injection and it was the least painful injection I have had. Thanks for taking care of me and my needs.

Excellent doctor. Very personable.

Awesome experience and amazing outcome to shoulder surgery! Highly recommend Dr Kumar, simply everything you could ask for in a surgeon.

Dr. Kumar is amazing. He takes his time, explains, listens. Very good with youth. Highly recommend.

Dr. Kumar is warm and kind and you just truly feel he cares. He has a unique and special way of simplifying what can be confusing and he shy's away from complex medical terms.

I wish all doctors treated their patients like Dr Kumar does.

Dr. Kumar fully understood my problems and explained them to me to better nurse my injury.

Cares about his patients! Takes his time explaining everything!!

I found Dr. Kumar to be very friendly, knowledgeable, let me know what to expect if I have any problem. I will go back to him with problems I might have.

Dr. Kumar is excellent very compassionate understanding and explained every part of my daughters surgery along the way I always felt that he kept me informed in anything that I did not understand he made sure that I did and he made sure that my daughter understood as well intaglio process has been great he is an exceptional surgeon

Dr. Kumar was very polite, courteous, and informative. He explained all of my concerns and made sure I understood everything that he was explaining about my shoulder MRI.

Dr. Kumar is wonderful. Patient and compassionate. And a wonderful teacher.

Very friendly and efficient

Very nice and professional
