Dr. Bonatz removed a bursa from my elbow that would not heal. He explained the surgical procedure in great detail and did a great job with the surgery. I also had physical therapy and they were excellent. Overall, I highly recommend Dr. Bonatz and his staff.

Rushed the appointment. I went to see him for a hand issue and all he talked about was my weight. I would not trust him to see my dog! I expect better medical treatment.

Dr. Bonatz has to be one of the worst doctors I’ve ever seen. My first visit with him was Nov 6 fracture ring finger sprained middle finger. He had me to start Occupational Therapy immediately. My return visit with Dec 8. My range of motion had improved however the strengthening had not even begun. All of my OT were saying the same thing my hand needed further OT because of my job. On Dec 8 2020 Dr. Bonazt entered the room and began talking with the door of the room wide open. I asked if he could close the door while we disc... read more

Before Dr. Bonatz did surgery on my wrist I could barely hold anything in my left hand today after his surgery I am completely healed and so thankful that I went to him to have the procedure done. I would definitely recommend him to anyone who had any problem with their wrist or hand.

Lady, you and your company are part of the problem. i had a great visit and no issues whatsoever. Onerous insurance requirements by the likes of your company make Dr. Bonatz' work difficult and burdensome. i appreciate a physician who knows what tests to order and when. i do not need my surgeon to have any second-guess from some high school drop out who works for the insurance company only to deny any claims.

If your problem is between the elbow and the fingertips, Dr. Bonatz provides the best care available anywhere on this planet. I am an avid and accomplished musician on a variety of stringed instruments. My left hand is more precious to me than any other appendage (yes even that!) because even if everything else quits working, I can still derive joy from wrapping my fingers around the neck of a mandolin or guitar. When I began to experience extreme pain at my CMC thumb joint, and then later generalized numbness and tingling t... read more

Horrible experience! I work for an insurance company and dr. Bonatz made a comment that since I work for an insurance company, He might as well get his money’s worth and send me off for an expensive CT scan.I was given no direction on what to do for my broken finger. He was extremely rude and rushed me through my appointment. He said I needed a custom made brace, that looks like something a 5 year old could have done. The therapist that braced my broken finger did not like the fact that I was questioning why they were bracin... read more

My appointment was at 8:30 and didn’t get seen until 10:15! Dr. B walks in no apology then asked me what’s going on. I give him the run down and he makes me feel like I’m lying and I’m not having the problem or pain that I know I have! Suggests physiotherapist but my insurance doesn’t cover it! Thanks for nothing! Don’t waste you time on the man! No personality and very pompous!
