Dr Eickmann was thorough, explained everything and showed me while he spoke. He told me about my options, made his recommendation and asked what I wanted to do. He was very reassuring and made sure all of my concerns were addressed. I highly recommend Dr Eickmann!

This office is always a pleasure to visit. From the front desk all the way through to his assistant the PT and the radiology department Dr Eickman’s staff is on their game. This office is how heath care should be run. I feel fortunate to have them in my corner. One knee down and one to go; so good I came back to more.

Dr. Eickman replaced my left hip 15 years ago after not being able to walk for 2 months before surgery. I went into surgery, and 6 hours later the intolerable pain was gone. He started me walking, so much relief, he is very much a realist. With the pain now my right hip, he said 'you will know when you need me'. I value Dr. Eickman very much and he is a great surgeon. Not looking forward to my next phase in this journey, but I am not concerned about the final results. Thanks Remy

I respect Dr Eichmann so much, he is a complete professional. He did an amazing job on my hip 12 years ago and he follow-up covered exactly what I needed. Thank you

This was my second visit with Dr. Eickmann. My first visit was really good back in March 2025. This time I felt that he was rushing me along (appointment was less than 5 minutes, and I was the only patient in the entire place). I would have liked to have seen my knee x-rays, although he said they were fine. Obviously my knee isn't fine and he did recommend an MRI. He asked if I had been taking ibuprofen for the swelling and I said no because I have AFib. Unfortunately he didn't recommend any other protocol so ice and elevation is it for now.

I feel safe and well cared for by Dr. Eickmann. He has been honest from the start about his expectations re: my knee replacement and I am very grateful for that. So far, my recovery is on track. I would recommend him to anyone looking for a surgeon to do a knee replacement.
