    We are so grateful for the wisdom and Theoness of this doctor. He keeps you very informed and is very quick to respond. He is very conscientious for his patients. We have been so blessed to have him do the knee replacement surgery foe my dad. We highly recommend him!

    Dr. Burnikel, thank you for the exceptional care I received. Since my total knee replacement surgery, my quality of life has dramatically improved; three weeks post-op, I have achieved a 120-degree bend with no pain medication. I am extremely pleased with the results. My gratitude extends to your surgical team, anesthesiologist, and the nursing staff who provided outstanding care during my overnight stay. Your thorough explanation of the procedure and attentiveness to my concerns were invaluable. I am deeply appreciative of the entire team and wish you continued success.
    In my opinion you're the G.O.A.T.

    As a 71 year old retired physician Patient, I must commend Dr Brian Burnikel for his
    Warmth, knowledge, dexterity and great skills as a Healer. In my long, long experience as a physician in NJ, I have never seen such caring and skill wrapped into one individual. I’ll recommend former patients to com’n south for their knee and hip needs. We’ll set up lodging….Dr Burnikel can do the real work.
    I’m only a week post op and feeling great.

    I’ve been made to feel like part of the upstate and am so happy to have relocated here.

    The office staff has been superb as well and all of Steadman-Hawkins! What a find and a GREAT COMFORT!

    Thanks...read full review
