Testimonials

Just had my first visit here for my shoulder after being recommended by my boss. The staff was awesome and attentive. Dr Weinstein was great! He took his time with the evaluation and did an excellent job at explaining the anatomy of what was going on inside my shoulder. I felt very taken care of during my visit.

Very positive experience. All staff very courteous and punctual. My referral doctor said DR.Weinstein is the best orthopedic doctor in Colorado Springs, and after my examination with Dr. Weinstein I have no reason to dispute that. He was very thorough, and clearly gave me all my options for treatment.

Dr. Weinstein was thorough with my rotator cuff examination and clearly explained the options. Dr. Weinstein was very friendly and answered all of our questions. I'm very comfortable that my upcoming treatment will effectively take care of my shoulder.

I have had knee replacements, spine and shoulder surgery in the past. Dr. Weinstein is so far the best of them all. He is passionate, knowledgeable and friendly. He is very good explaining the issues in simple terms for purpose of educating the patient and make them understand the issues in hand.

A patient for 20 yrs, with mostly sport injuries. Dr. Weinstein has been outstanding in " putting me back together", 3 shoulder surgeries, and I am moving again. My hobby is "throwing implements": mainly javelin and shot. I am able to still enjoy my hobby, thanks to Dr. Weinstein's surgical skills AND care after the procedures. His staff, Jeremy Raulie and the PT Boss are outstanding. It is more than comforting to know, I can get help with my injuries.
