  • “Dr. Bruner is working to solve my knee problems doing everything possible to avoid or delay knee replacement. The recent Synvisc injection series by Greg K. have relieved my day-to-day grinding and aching at night or when knee not supported. Moving forward with Dr. Bruner to prevent pain events in most problem knee still requiring pain shots. Dr. Bruner has gained my confidence we are making best efforts to save my knee(s) because at 65, if I get replacement parts, I want to do it only once in my lifetime. With Dr. Bruner - I no longer feel I'm a production line patient being evaluated for knee replacement by a check list.”

  • “I had a TKR a few months ago. The entire process went very smoothly. I had asked when I scheduled why I should have Dr. Walker do my surgery. The gal said, "well, I love that he is very detail oriented." I wasn't sure what to make of that comment then, but on this side of it, I believe that the extra details, such as using the Continuous Motion Machine right out of surgery, helped my recovery immensely. I have full range of motion, very little pain, and I can't believe what a difference the surgery has made! I will be in before the end of the year to do the other knee. Thank you to Dr. Walker and his staff.”

  • “I need to have total knee replacement for both knees. Dr. Walker said he would not do both knees at the same time. He explained that when you have one knee done usually you relieve the other knee and can hold off for awhile before having the other done. At first I was disappointed. But after having the right knee done and started physical therapy I was glad to just have the one done. In physical therapy there were some there that had both done or one and the other a month later. Majority probably 20 to 30 years older than I. I know it's not an easy recovery. But after you heal it's all worth it. There's two doctors that I heard that will do both or one than the other a month later. Learned this in physical therapy visiting with other patients. To me watching these other patients and their ages being so much older made me feel that these other doctors were out more for the money. I appreciate Dr. Walker saying no. He's looking out for his patients well being.”

  • “Dr. Bruner was terrific! He did both my son's ACL tear and my meniscus tear and in both cases we were better than new after the procedures. My procedure was preformed years ago and I play a lot of golf. I feel no pain or discomfort at all. With the golf swing where you do a significant amount of coiling and twisting of the lower body I feel my knee is better than new. I recommend Dr. Bruner and his staff HIGHLY!”
