I was very impressed with Dr "P"! He went into great detail to explain my x-rays on my right hand/ wrist. I have been in great pain for the last almost 2 years. I had a fall, broke my knee & caused a real problem with my hand. Obviously I had to have a FKR, so the wrist was on hold. A couple of doctors later..now Dr P...3rd Dr, I finally know what's going on and it requires surgery. I like that Dr P is straightforward with me and is a very knowledgeable surgeon and FINALLY I can get my wrist taken care of!

I recently embarked on an adventure to North Florida Bone and Joint Specialist, for my first appointment with Dr. Piorkowski. From the instant I walked through the doors, it was an atmosphere so inviting it practically whispered, "Welcome, kick back, relax and rest your bones!" The staff? Oh, they were the friendliest bunch of people I’ve ever met at a doctor’s office! Now, brace yourselves (pun intended) here's the plot twist. You know how waiting at the doctors can feel like an eternity trapped in a time warp? Not here! My wait was shorter than a squirrel's attention span on an espresso binge. And here's the kicker - Dr. P (as he suggested) has got more skills up his sleeve than a magician at a talent show! He dished out information like it was confetti at a New Year's Eve party, and he answered all my questions with the patience of a saint. No rushing! Highly Recommended? You bet your bones it is! So, if you need help with any of your four extremities or other injuries or conditions, do yourself a favor and make an appointment with Dr. Piorkowski and his exceptional crew at North Florida Bone and Joint Specialist.

If there were ten stars, I’d rate higher. To have my problematic hands x-rayed, ultrasound, and taken care of in one trip, is a lifesaver. He’s efficient and fast but while I waited on my ultrasound, he stopped by at least twice to let me know he didn’t forget and was waiting on the machine. This was top tier service in an industry that most people spend time reviewing just to complain about. I couldn’t be happier with the care I received from Dr. P!

I came to Dr. Piorkowski with a complicated issue regarding ruptured tendons and extensive arthritis in my wrist. Two specialists had already told me to learn to live with the problem but I could no longer perform my work and could not participate in my hobbies due to this injury. After much deliberation, Dr. Piorkowski performed surgery involving multiple tendon transfers and bone repair. He warned me that the surgery might not be successful but after 6 months, my hand and wrist have almost full function and I can do everything I need and want to do. I was most impressed that Dr. Piorkowski truly listened to me when I told him how my life would change without a solution to the problem. I now know from his staff and from my physical therapists that these results are nothing short of miracle. I am grateful for his skill and his understanding. The care I received from Dr. Piorkowski and his team was truly phenomenal.

Dr. Piorkowski is a brilliant, straight to the point physician and surgeon. He’s one of two “Hypocratic Oath” style physicians I’ve come across in perhaps two decades or more. As I grew up in a medical family and practiced nursing, I’m in a position to know. He helped me figure out what was causing post operative nerve issues in my hand and alerted me to a process I didn’t know I had. I believe his intervention will change the result of my next surgery. One of the three things I like best about him is that he is accessible, and gives straight forward, thoughtful answers to questions. In my view, he’s the best!

original injury was due to falling into a firepit..while in recovery for this I developed massive scar tissue across the palm of my left hand,I have had 3 prior surgeries all to remove this. The thumb became contracted into the first finger being unable to use my hand. Each time I had surgery the scar tissue reformed. Dr P. was recommended to me and he said he could do what most doctors can't he did a flap reversal taking a piece of my forearm and removing the scar tissue replacing it with the piece and the artery now in the palm...and no scar tissue has come back..I have full function of my thumb and all my fingers. I am a guitar player and had not been able to play since the accident june of 2020...three days ago I picked up the guitar and began to play....Dr. P. is amazing and he cares about his patients above and beyond. I highly recommend him ...

Thank God for Dr. Piorkowski! I have a condition known as "Drop Foot", where I could not raise my foot or toes. This seriously impaired my ability to walk or even climb stairs. I had trouble finding a doctor to help me as I have heart and vascular disease and considered a high risk with little to no results. Dr. Piorkowski was the only one that didn't turn me away and the surgery was quick, painless, with a small incision, and now I can raise my foot and walk almost back to normal after 1 week. The general prognosis for this condition is to have treatment within 90 days or risk zero recovery. It had been 6 months because no other doctors would treat me. Dr. Piorkowski had faith that he could help and I'm amazed that I have my foot back! I was already planning a funeral for my foot, but now have that back and great faith in Dr. Piorkowski. Great team and support! Thank you all!

I have been seeing Dr. P for close to 6 months following a bad gunshot injury to my hand. In the beginning, the outlook for the hand looked very bleak. Dr. Piorkowski conducted two reconstructive surgeries on the hand and guided recovery. After recovering from the most recent surgery, the hand is regaining functionality to the point where It appears I can return to being a pilot. I was very fortunate to have him as a surgeon after a life-altering injury.

Dr. Piorkowski is an outstanding surgeon. He is skilled in his surgery, caring, and efficient. He also happens to be a delightful, energetic and upbeat person. My recovery was remarkably fast. (Within two weeks) My surgery was 6 months ago and my hand is absolutely perfect. I had a "trigger finger" and was reluctant to have the surgery, and put it off for longer than I should have. Dr. P. made me feel comfortable and that I was in safe and caring hands. I especially appreciated that he did not find it necessary to put me under total anesthesia, just a local. This made everything much easier. Can't recommend him highly enough. Excellent in every way.

After years of pain due to RA, steroid injections and pain meds. Dr P. discovered my bone at the base of my thumb had desegregated. He tried to do the least invasive surgery using a tendon to try and keep my thumb in place. After months of physical therapy we realized that the tendon wasn’t strong enough to hold my thumb in place. He went back to the drawing board and performed a second surgery, using pins, rods and in layman’s terms a piano wire to make my thumb useable again. He is a very knowledgeable, sincere and professional surgeon. I would recommend him to anyone and everyone that is having any hand problems seek him out. Dr Piorlowski @ The Hand Center.

Dr. Piorkowski did an outstanding job removing a large neuroma at the end of my amputated leg. This neuroma had kept me from being able to stand or walk with my prosthetic leg. I had been to see a number of specialist and they would shrug their shoulders. After my 5th MRI, Dr. Piorkowski immediately spotted a cloudy area in exactly the same place the sharp pain occurred. He explained to me that the nerve endings, after being cut, would sometimes gather in clump. Being gathered, instead of spread out, the nerve endings would deliver very sharp pain when agitated. After 2yrs and all the other specialist Dr. Piorkowski had found the cause and stated that he felt it was operable. I was so happy to know that I wasn't crazy. The operation was a success. I am currently going through physical therapy and I am doing well. The good doctor has changed my life for the better!

I went to Dr. Piorkowski expecting to just get a cursory glance, a little prodding, and then a cortisone shot for pain in my arm I've dealt with for over a decade. He ACTUALLY listened to me, and worked to figure out the problem rather than slapping a bandaid (literally and figuratively) on the problem. He explained everything he was doing really well, from what he thought was the issue to why he was doing certain tests. Ultimately, the decision was made to go the surgery route. I'm HEAVILY tattooed, and surgery is always a fear with tattoos. You can BARELY tell I had surgery. He went through one of my more delicate linework pieces and lined it back up PERFECTLY. Highly recommend. Great doctor, and great person. Office staff was wonderful as well.

I am already noticing improved strength function of the affected hand. I’m a musician & had completely lost the ability to play so I’ve already put that to the test with a better outcome than I expected.

You can not find a better or more caring surgeon. I was referred by another great surgeon, Dr Roger Ostrander, because of Dr. Pirokowski's extensive training, multiple skills and knowledge. To be a hand specialist he had extensive knowledge and experience with repairing acromion bones. The repair has been perfect and with everything that was going against it healing, I can not praise Dr. Piorkowski enough and of course I praise the Master physician for the wisdom and skills my good Lord granted to Dr. Piorkowki. He is a great surgeon in my opinion, he is also caring and thoughtful, always returning my texts and calls himself. He was straightforward from the beginning with my odds of healing, as was others, and his skills allowed me to beat the odds. He is my orthopedic surgeon going forward, unless he refers me to someone else.

This is the most positive experience I've had with a physician, and I've been to several specialists. Dr. Piorkowski examined my hands and diagnosed the problems I'd been having with them for the past few years, but that wasn't good enough for him, he continued to probe and ask questions until he figured out all the issues with my hand, wrists, and tennis elbow and developed a diagnostic and probable treatment plan. I would most highly recommend him to anyone with issues in their hands and wrists.

I was referred to Dr. Piorkowski for a complicated issue with my left arm that involved an uncommon bone spur and the compression of 2 nerves in multiple places. I consulted with Dr. P since he had direct experience with my specific issue (it’s not common) and found out he also is experienced working with patients on biologic drugs and with autoimmune conditions. I felt confident that he was more than competent to perform the surgery I needed in addition to managing my biologic medication during the post-operative period. My confidence was not mis-placed! Dr. Piorkowski did a flawless job in the operating room, my surgical results were best case scenario and the post-operative care I received was thorough. He kept me in therapy and followed up with me longer than usual due to the complicated nature of my case and I appreciated that very much. The extra time allowed me to get even stronger under the care and supervision of the wonderful OT department at Andrews. I also appreciated having his cell number in case I had questions or concerns throughout my time with him. I felt this was a very nice personal touch and helped me feel connected if I had a need for help or any questions. I did have a couple of questions after the surgery and he responded quickly each time I texted. I highly recommend Dr. Piorkowski, I would recommend him to my friends and family members if needed and would personally see him again if the need ever arises! Thank you Dr. Piorkowski!

I am no stranger to orthopedic offices for upper extremities. I have had 5 prior orthopedic surgeries on my wrists, hands, and elbow. I got a referral from my PCP to an orthopedic doctor to remove the hardware from my thumb. That is when I met Dr. Piorkowski. From the first visit till the last he made me feel like I was his number one priority and that he really wanted to fix me. He wasn't scared to go in and do a revision surgery on my ulna nerve transposition. He had no idea what he was going to find when he got in there and it wasn't easy to fix. He was able to fix the issue and give me full use of my arm again with no pain. I seriously can't thank him enough for giving me my freedom back and fixing my other elbow before it got worse. I can now have 2 functioning arms. Not to mention he is a cosmetic surgeon as well so your incision/scaring will look flawless once healed. He is always on phone call/text away to help you.

I just had a very diffcult surgery preformed by Dr Piorkowski at Gulf Breeze Hospital. After weeks of consultations at his office going over all the proceedure risk and benefits. Dr took amazing amount of time with me to explain everything to the smallest detail. I just want to add this man gave me his personal cell phone number to update him on any changes as we prepared for surgery. One day before scheduled surgery I had a slight complication, I did not want to bother him it was 8 pm. But he said keep him updated so I thought I'll just try and see what happens !! Within 3 Minutes he called me. I mean really is there any one that cannot agree this man is the best !! He is able to break things down in laymans terms like no other Dr. I've ever been seen by.. Surgery went better than expected considering all the soft tissue damages that had occurred prior to surgery. Dr contacted my wife after surgery and explained everything to her she knew exactly how to give me the post surgery care.

I broke my right hand index finger back in September and I went to Dr. Piorkowski and he was swift to understand exactly what the problem was and made sure that I had the best care and clinical help all the way up until the surgery. And then on the surgery day he talked to me before guiding me through exactly what was going to happen and easing me all the way up to my surgery calming me down because it was my very first actual surgery, and after it was a complete success. And then all of my follow up appointments went smooth and he did a perfect job with the surgery to where I had a full recovery within a few months and now all the work that needs to be done is just strengthening test.

I’m a weightlifter that began experiencing full blown carpal tunnel syndrome in both hands after 23 years of heavy lifting. I rarely use straps so almost all the lifting involves handgrip, which along with a genetic predisposition, probably contributed to it. I was experiencing severe numbness and tingling that would wake me up while sleeping and affect everything in daily life such as hands going numb while driving. Dr Piorkowski performed 2 surgeries separately at Andrews Institute with great success. Problem solved and no mistakes (he didn’t cut the nerve). He’s a high speed confident doctor that knows what he’s doing. Highly recommend. He also appreciates patients with a good beard, lol.

I came to Dr. Piorkowski with a broken ulna and radius. He did surgery and provided excellent follow up. He was always available to answer questions and even provided his personal cell phone number in case of problems or concerns. He was immediately responsive. He coordinated therapy that assisted in my recovery. He's very well trained. Several other physicians have commented favorably on his competence and excellent training. I feel very fortunate to have him as my physician.

To start I’ve been an RN for many years so I have good basic knowledge of orthopedic surgery. The examinations with the doctor were very thorough and conducted professionally. He took plenty of time with me and answered all my questions. During our visits, what impressed me the most was he would dictate the visit while I was in the exam room. After all testing was finalized we came up with a treatment plan. I needed open carpal tunnel and trigger finger release in both hands. I had the right hand operated on first and it is stronger than ever, pain free, and no numbness or tingling. I will have the left hand done on Monday and I feel strongly that I will have the same results. I recommend Dr Piorkowski for anyone who is needing orthopedic surgery of the hands and or the arms.

The staff is wonderful, Friendly and outgoing. They run on time and never have made me wait for an appointment more than 5 minutes which is unheard of. Dr. Pirokowski is great. He will go out of his way to explain things until you understand them. He is not pushy and does not push surgery which is a good trait for a surgeon.

I could not be more pleased with my entire 12 week experience with Dr. P. I cut the back of my hand open and the nurse at the urgent care texted him a picture for his advice, and he could see that I had cut through three tendons, and he could arrange his schedule to see me ASAP. I knew right away my hand would be in good hands with Dr. P. He explained the procedure down to the detail of the intricate stitches needed to reattach tendons and made sure I understood the whole surgery and recovery.

Dr. Piorkowski is a skilled and thorough surgeon. My first surgery with Dr. P was a plastic surgery to repair a wound. After the surgery, he and his awesome staff followed me in the hospital, and the end result was a success. Now there is basically no visible scar! My second surgery with Dr. P occurred after I broke my leg in several places. He successfully put my leg back together. In addition to being an excellent surgeon he is kind and very accessible, willing to answer any questions.

Dr. P did a fantastic job with a moberg flap on my right thumb. The procedure was done with only local anesthesia and he shared after the surgery the steps and the procedure he did visually. Prior to it he explain the implication that could occurred, even though my rehabilitation and the surgery were perfectly done. I am a teacher and my biggest concern was writing. I am able to write cursive and my day to day writing. It is so well done that my surgery incision is barely noticeable.

I had lacerated my left pinkie finger with a knife and sliced open my flexor tendon and partially severed the nerve. Fortunately, Dr. Priokowski was in the E.R that night and had me scheduled for surgery within a few days. The surgery went by perfectly and after only a few months of therapy I had nearly full motion and a massive return of sensation from an injury that many do not fully recover from.
