Excellent experience from initial consult with Dr Kress to follow up post op. Dr Kress and his entire office staff are very professional and respectful of the patient. He took time to answer all my questions thoroughly. I had a right total knee replacement as an out patient. Great hospital staff and process. Admitted at 7am day of surgery and in car headed home at 2pm. To Physical Therapy next day and 3 times weekly thereafter for 6 weeks. Walking without walker in one week. No complications!!!

I was referred to Dr. Kress by two other people. When I went to his office he took the time and explained what was to happen regarding hip surgery. He spoke with my husband as well and answered his question. He had a very good bed side manner. Easy to talk to and willing to listen to me and answer my questions. My appointments were timely and little wait time. The doctor was knowledgeable about the surgery. I looked up his record for infections very low. That was a selling point for me.

I highly recommend Dr. Kress. My hip socket was grinding bone on bone from rheumatoid arthritis and I woke up one day and I could not walk. I was in horrible pain with sciatica complications. My rheumatologist recommended dr. Kress. From my first visit I felt I was in good hands. My surgery was at 11:00 or so. I was doing laps with a walker by 3:15 around the nurses station after the surgery with no pain. Went home at 6:00. I haven't had any problems since. Thank you Dr. Kress. LC

Dr. Kress never listened to me nor was he interested in hearing anything but his own expertise. He rushed through my surgery, blaming me for the poor results. Six years of pain ended after finding another surgeon who confirmed the mistakes (made by Dr. Kress) and corrected the problem . My physical therapist told me the week after Kress's surgery that something was wrong. After examining the original operative notes, it becomes apparent that even Kress knew he made mistakes. Avoid this man.

He is the only Dr. that correctly diagnosed my hip problem from severe KNEE pain after seeing 5 Drs. over a period of four years! The stenosis in my back, (that I didn't know I had), was pinching a nerve that diverted the arthritic hip pain to my knee! Dr. Kress performed a complete hip replacement in a 45 minute operation, after which, when I awoke and went through postop, I later WALKED OUT OF THE HOSPITAL THAT SAME AFTERNOON to recuperate at home!!

I had total hip 15 years ago. He was my savior and gave me quality of life I never had since I had congenital hip problem. Eddie Bean is great for follow up. I trust both Dr. Kress and Eddie Bean completely. I feel blessed to have them both.
