I have been a patient of Dr. Kramberg since 2012. I feel lucky and I am grateful to have been treated by him. Dr. Kramberg is very knowledgeable and takes time to listen to my complaints and explains my options based on my condition. Dr. Kramberg guided me every step of the way including with scheduling MRI and other specialized physicians referrals.The receptionists and the office manager are very helpful, friendly and accommodating. Appointments are flexible and available due to their office hours. There is no other PT place like RMC. I've been treated for shoulders, neck and back as well as knee injuries and this place is simply AMAZING! Getting treated by the PT staff, especially Faith who really cares about rehabilitating her patients was a wonderful experience. I am very happy with Dr. Kramberg, RMC and the entire staff. I highly recommend it! Forever grateful! read more

I honestly hate leaving negative reviews about a business but sometimes it's important because it allows the business to correct what may be going wrong internally. I decided to use Dr. Kramberg because I was sold on the Regenexx brand. I had been watching Dr. Centeno (from Colorado) on Facebook and thought doing PRP injections into my low back would be the way to go. Read some interesting stuff about it online and apparently it has helped people. I believe it does a better job in the knees, shoulders, and simple joints. The spine has an array of things that can go wrong. The muscles, ligaments, bones, discs, nerves, etc, or all issues that can develop from the spine. I figured getting PRP shots in this area could help. I prepared for the injections by eating a clean (low carb/low sugar) diet one week before. I also was careful not to take any blood thinning drugs or anti-inflammatories. As the day of my injections came closer I was a little nervous but also excited to see if they could help my chronic low back issues. I arrived at 1pm and was called in within 30 minutes for the blood draw. Approximately 35ml was drawn (around 9 viles). I was told it would be around an hour before the injections would happen. Well.....it was about 4hrs before I was called in. When your already very nervous and anxious and then you have to sit around for what feels like forever it is exhausting. When I finally got called in for the injections I was brought downstairs into an area just outside a physical therapy center. I was given a gown to wear and was absolutely freezing. I was so cold I was literally shivering. I waited another 20 minutes before Dr. Kramberg came down with his assistant nurse and started to prepare the injections. He read off my MRI and asked me to lay on my stomach. Not once was I asked where most of my pain was coming from. I figured this was important because maybe they can focus on that area the most. Instead it was as if they were following the Regenexx protocol and were doing the shots in areas they felt necessary. The injections were painful and lasted about 30 minutes. I was happy when it was over but felt a little rushed when it was finished. It took me an hour to get to Wayne, NJ and I spent about 5 hours waiting around. The whole experience was around 8 hours from when I left my house to when I got home. It wasnt cheap either ($2,000). I was also told the price went up to $2,500 but because I came in before the price increase they'd honor the $2000. Well, it's been about 6 weeks since my injections and I've noticed no difference. What really upsets me is I haven't even received a phone call or follow-up to see how I'm doing. You would think this would be protocol with most clinics. I decided to call around to get pricing for another round of injections. I do believe that PRP can be helpful and I did read a 2nd or 3rd round may be necessary. Luckily, I found a clinic near me that also does PRP injections. It's a reputable clinic with incredible reviews and also a respected Doctor. There price was half of Dr. Krambergs. They also told me that I would only wait around 30 minutes for them to spin the blood in the centrifuge and inject it into me. They were astonished I waited over 4hrs for my injections and swore that would never happen. If your thinking about getting PRP injections then definitely research doctors in the area that are experienced with this stuff. I was sold on the "Regenexx" brand but had a subpar experience with this particular clinic. Regenerative medicine clinics are a cash cow. Insurance companies don't cover the stuff so it's all out of pocket. Be VERY careful when choosing someone for this stuff. When your in pain you get desperate. You start thinking irrational and impulsive. I made the mistake of choosing this clinic. I won't make the same mistake the 2nd go around. read more

Unfortunately, I am currently experimenting rehabilitation methods for the labral tear located in my right shoulder. I am a professional dancer and have not been working for 5-6 months now because the pain will not allow me to do strenuous activities. I tried undergoing physical therapy for a month in "Englewood Orthopedics" and found that the therapists there are too distracted in conversations and do not pay attention to their patients or their progress. I left and decided to try the "Physical Therapy Center" in Teaneck NJ and found that the therapists there do a full diagnostics, evaluate your problem, converse, and actually give you exercises that allow room for progress. I went there for 3 weeks and felt the difference in my shoulder from their electroshock therapy and ultrasounds massages. However, the progress was minimal. I recommend going to therapy there if your job does not consist of daily strenuous movements. Finally, I came across the "Rehabilitation Medicine Center of New Jersey" and Dr. Robert D. Kramberg. When I went in for my first consultation he was very talkative and spent a lot of time with me discussing Prolotherapy, a non-surgical approach, to solving my labral tear issue. He also proceeded to say that the injection would most likely not be effective the first-time around and that I might need a set of three injections to feel any type of healing. I decided to go in for the first shot the week after. The injection was painful. I was put in a sling and told to take tylenol. A month later (today-November 8, 2012), I went in for my follow up. I waited 45 minutes in the waiting room, drove thirty minutes to Wayne just so Dr. Kramberg could give me 2 minutes of his time. This time around he did not even sit down to talk to me about how I was feeling. He did not do tests on my arm to see if I had gained any strength back. In fact, he stood by the door and told me that if I wanted to do the next shot then "fine" but if I wanted to do surgery that that would be fine too. Before I knew it, he walked out of the room and that was it. I paid $1000 out of my pocket for this injection and was hoping to get the second set, but the way he treated me deviated me away from spending money on another injection that might not produce results. I have heard that Prolotherapy works for some and not others, unfortunately, I just did not feel any progress at all. Perhaps if I went to another office, then I would have probably avoided the surgery that I scheduled today. I hope this helps you guys. Good luck! read more

I was treated by Dr. Kramberg in October 2017 for a torn rotator cuff. Treatment consisted of Regenexx, Prolotherapy and PRP after an Orthopedist told me surgery was my only option. I am now 10 weeks post procedure and pain free. I found him to be very knowledgeable and thorough. Very happy with my results and experience. read more

I am a business owner. I am very sensitive about posting negative reviews. For seven days, I have debated whether or not I should share my experience. Regretfully, I am posting negatively about my experience with Dr. Kramberg. My reason for posting the review is to proactively prevent other potential patients from experiencing poor treatment. The patient doctor relationship here was completely shattered by the doctor's behavior. I am not seeking any sort of financial, reimbursement. I am simply sharing my bad experience. During my consultation (3/24/16) with Dr. Kramberg, he seemed rushed, and disheveled. When my husband asked questions, Dr. Kramberg responded as if he were merely reciting tidbits of information from the Regenexx brochures. He said I was a candidate for the injection series. When I inquired about his availability during the consultation, the doctor stated, he was booked up six months in advance, and that if we were interested, we should get on the schedule right away. Dr. Kramberg was creating a sense of urgency, a common, and useful sales tactic. The morning of 4/14/16, my MRI report arrived, my husband, and I had additional questions. That same day, Dr. Kramberg called me regarding my MRI report questions. I asked if I could conference my husband in on the call. The doctor sighed audibly, and reluctantly agreed. I asked the doctor about the effectiveness of having the stem cell injections rebuild my damaged labrum, only to have the "rebuilt" labrum ripped away by my existing cam impingement issue (which is similar to the concept of a bone spur). Dr. Kramberg said, "Yes, the injections will help", and then he said his patients with my same hip issue, have shown improvement, with a reduction in pain. I said, "That is great. I would be interested in talking to these people who have had my same hip issue, and have shown improvement, after the series of stem cell injections." -Regenexx claims to have performed nearly 30,000 stem cell procedures, surely one of their successful injections stories would match closely to my current hip situation. In response, Dr. Kramberg suddenly spoke very loudly to my husband and I, saying "I'm not rounding out your bones! Go do your homework! I don't have time for this! I have a patient on the table waiting for me! I am canceling all of your appointments! I have a patient on the table waiting for me! I have to go! I don't have time to talk to you about this anymore!" He hung up the phone, as my husband, and I were saying we could schedule a phone call when he had more time...From a customer service perspective, there are a million other ways this situation could have been handled. Honestly, I am not sure why he would call a patient back to discuss a recent MRI report, in the middle of another patient's procedure. If in fact there was another important matter requiring his attention, it would have made more logical sense to have the office staff call my husband and I to schedule a follow-up phone consultation, or even an in-person consultation. Instead, the overly dramatic response left my husband, and I immediately suspicious of Dr. Kramberg, and the Regenexx corporation. Although I live with chronic pain, I am not an unreasonable person. I understand that some questions, and concerns require more time. On 4/20/16, Andre from the corporate Regenexx office advised me that "Dr. Kramberg is known to be abrasive, and also known not to have a good bedside manner." Further, that Dr. Kramberg remains within the Regenexx network, because he is "has a high level of skill with Regenexx procedures". Andre also advised me, "After the Coordinator, and the Strategic Development Director spoke with the Dr. Kramberg's office staff they agreed, Dr. Kramberg is that way with patients because he's from New York." I repeated back to Andre what he had said. Andre replied, "Well, those are my words, Dr. Kramberg is very direct when he speaks." Andre seemed to be back pedaling. I explained, that although I am not from New York, I am quite familiar with our culture of direct speaking in this region. I recognize direct speaking can seem a little off putting for some. I am not a shrinking violet, and have absolutely zero issue with a person speaking frankly. The issue I have, is not having my questions answered, being loudly talked over, and then hung up on. Anyone enduring chronic pain is especially vulnerable to scams, bad service, and general mistreatment. I hope to spare others from a similar awful experience. Thank you for your time in reading this. read more
