    Tried to call to make an appointment to be fitted for a neck brace. Never had a call back. My surgeon's office referred me elsewhere.

    More than 10 years ago I went to Dr. Winternitz for pain in my left shoulder. The pain was so bad…read moreI was dropping weights at the gym. Fortunately, an MRI didn't show any injury to the rotator cuff and he gave me an injection. I remember getting complete relief and haven't had a problem until about 6 months ago. But this time, it was the right shoulder. It had been so long since he treated me, I had to look at the MRI to see if it was the same shoulder or not because I had forgotten. I called his office and they were able to get me in within a week. Also, they emailed me all the new patient forms and I was able to complete all of it at home and send back to them, so when I came for my appointment, the paperwork was all done. They even have a "patient portal" you can log into and track your appointment, treatment and more. They are located in a small medical center with plenty of free parking. The office itself is quite comfortable and appealing. I was taken care of by the Medical Assistant as soon as I checked in and might have waited 10 minutes before I was escorted back to an examination room. The walls of Dr. Winternitz's office are covered with college and professional athletes he has treated over the years. Just based upon all the photos of the athletes on his walls you would think he would be a team doctor for some major sports team, but it's nice to know someone with his expertise and professionalism is accessible to anyone. After a brief history, Dr. Winternitz examined my shoulder and did a thorough physical exam. He ordered some x-rays which I was able to do at his office and fortunately he didn't find anything abnormal. He recommended another injection which he did right there in the examination room on the same appointment. Within a minute or two of receiving the injection, my pain was gone. Dr. Winternitz treated my left shoulder more than a decade ago and I've never had a single bit of pain since which is why I went back when my right shoulder began hurting. As I write this, I am so happy to be pain free after six months of pain. I know quite a few sports doctors in San Diego, but with the success I had during my previous encounter with Dr. Winternitz, I see no reason to go elsewhere. Naturally, I hope to never need to see a sports medicine doctor again, but if I do, without question I'll come to Dr. Winternitz. Everything from making the appointment, his beautiful office, his amazing staff and Dr. Winternitz himself, I can't recommend his highly enough if you have a sports injury.

    Dr. Hajnik is a life changer. For over two years I took 3-4 Advil a day and had to constantly ice…read moreto deal with the swelling and pain in my knee. My other Orthopedic Surgeon in Encinitas told me it was just early arthritis at the age of 40 and I just needed to strengthen my core to alleviate the pain. I believed him because of the great reviews he had on Yelp. I tried all of the PT he recommended and all the shots he administered: the rooster comb injections, the steroid shots, the PRP injections...nothing worked. After visiting a wonderful Acupuncture therapist named Jennifer Lyons in Carlsbad, CA who I highly recommend, she recommended Dr. Hajnik who performed Knee Replacement Surgery on her father. Instead of a normal MRI administered by most Doctors, his team at CORE in Encinitas performed a "Fat Surpressed MRI." It was able to detect bone marrow lesions scattered throughout my knee bone, i.e. stress fractures in my bone. He told me that he thought these were the main contributors of my pain but that I did have significant knee arthritis for my age. After trying conservative treatment options before considering this procedure (rest, ice, brace) I quickly realized that was not doing the trick. The procedure he performed was called Subchondroplasty where he fills in those bone fractures with a synthetic bone marrow. He performed the procedure over a year and a half ago and I am still pain free and I haven't had any swelling. Sure, there is arthritis. But I can play weekend baseball, play with my kids and ski with the family. I will give Dr. Hajnik one of those cheesy pictures of me playing ball or doing something active with my family because he changed my life! When considering the right orthopedic surgeon for your knee pain there is no one else I would trust or recommend than Dr. Hajnik. Thanks again Dr. Hajnik!

    I scheduled an appointment with Dr. Hajnik because I had general questions about possible knee…read moresurgery, such as pain management, home health care, availability after surgery, etc.. but he did not want to answer one question because I did not agree to x-rays beforehand. His demeanor during the consultation was cold, dismissive, impatient, and antagonistic from the moment he walked into the exam room. His advice to me regarding the pain in my knee was to "learn to live with it and take Advil." I couldn't care less if he were the best surgeon in San Diego County... I would never trust him for quality patient care.

The complete bill is not covered by my insurance. I explicitly asked them several times. Do you take my insurance? I don't want to do anything that is not covered by insurance, and they said yes each time. All of a sudden, I got a bill for the entire visit. when I called to ask why, they said you were only given a little discount, but we do not participate in the exchange. I said that should've been explained to me and she said "no that was my job to research" and I said "no that was her job to tell me", which she did not. I really like Robert Arfa, but honestly, this visit was a complete waste of time and money. They never even called with my results. I got no treatment. Did they really expect me to book a follow up appointment after this?
