"Twelve minutes is not long enough for him to form any type of opinion but he thinks he is a good doctor and tries to intimidate. He didn't even check out the problem I was sent to him for."
— Vitals Review of Dr. Peter A. Feinstein"Dr. Kolessar is a very arrogant doctor who blames the patient if they don't heal well. ... I needed a second opinion due to the pain, which he refused to address."
— Vitals Review of Dr. David J. Kolessar"Dr. Cooper spent more time with me than any other surgeon. He clearly showed me what was wrong with my knee on his real time ultasound computer and recommended no surgery. I am now completely better with some injections and therapy."
