List of Brian Cole's Reviews
I met Dr. Cole in 2011 when every other knee Dr. I talked to told me I needed surgery. Dr. Cole recommended Physical Therapy and I played softball for 10 more years on the basis of that advice. Last year, in 2021, when the knee was bad again, he advised a cortisone shot and I played the rest of the season pain free. This year, when pain reappeared and a 2nd cortisone shot did not work, his excellent PA, Kyle Pils, told me that Dr. Cole had been trying oral steroids in combination with PT. It took a few weeks but I was back running full speed. I'm 65 years old still playing all out softball, thanks in large part to Dr. Cole and his staff. Mike C.
I have nothing but high praise for Dr. Brian Cole and his excellent team. From my initial meeting, to the treatment plan to post op follow-up they showed the utmost, knowledge, professionalism and compassion for me and my health. I feel stronger and healthier since my procedure and could not be more excited to get back to living an active life!
Great Dr. 2 shoulder surgery’s over the past 18 months. Shoulders are better then ever. Staff is great will go above and beyond to try and help all they can.
Still having issues from a cath he did 5 years ago. He came into the operating room wreaking of alcohol at 7am. Never washed his hands or changed gloves after walking in and out of the operating room. AVOID IF YOU CALUE YOUR HEALTH!!!!!
Dr Cole and his staff at the Munster, IN center were fantastic. I was extremely anxious about my procedure but they were so friendly and kept me calm. In the end, the whole experience turned out to be virtually painless and my anxiety was for nothing. I had right shoulder surgery and although I'm in some post op pain now, they thought of everything and made sure my meds were ready beforehand. They've called me the last two days in a row to do follow ups as well. Thank you Dr. Cole.
I had been having general pain and very poor flexibility for a few years. Dr. Cole and his team did a quick scope and clean-up of my shoulder. I started PT 2 days after surgery and have NO pain and my flexibility is almost 100% back. A few more weeks of PT and I will be back on the course!
Dr. Cole operated on me 4-5 years ago when I had a complete tear of my right ACL. He operated on me in May and I was back on the ski slopes (where my original injury took place) in December. This past Sunday, I had another ski injury: Tibia Plateau Fracture #1 (right knee again). I was in Vail, and they highly suggested I operate the same day as my injury, so it wasn't possible for me to fly back to Chicago to have Dr. Cole do the operation. However, my surgeon was stunned that all my ligaments remained in tact. He told me the only reason why I didn't experience more trauma to my knee with this accident is mostly due to the impeccable work Dr. Cole's performed on me the first time around. Words cannot express the gratitude I have to Dr. Cole and his team. I feel incredibly blessed to have been under his care. Not only is he a fantastic surgeon, he's also a wonderful person to work with.
Excellence! My husband had 3 failed rotator cuff surgeries. 3 years later, pain and hardship, we found Dr. Cole. 4th surgery a great success! Thank you Dr. Cole and we highly recommend him.
Dr. Cole is down to earth and really cares!
He refused to fill out a consultation form that I needed to be completed, saying over and over "I don't fill out forms!"

Selection Criteria
All the information you see here is based on our analysis of internet reviews across the seven major review platforms most used by consumers during their healthcare provider selection. The platforms we selected are Google, WebMD, Yelp, HealthGrades, Facebook, RateMDs, and Vitals. The analysis algorithm uses the compiled data of average score, recency of reviews, number of reviews, and the sentiment expressed in the written comments. It then assigns weight to each parameter based on the available research on how consumers use reviews in their doctor selection process. This report is designed to help identify the doctors with the best overall review score in an area and does not reflect the doctors' competence.
