Jared P. Salinsky's Online Review Report Card

I have had nothing but positive experiences over the past 20 yrs from the entire practice. Dr. Kardashian has done several surgeries on both of my hands and also on my son. Raising 15 kids we were there pretty often. I was scheduled for an appointment with Dr. Salinsky by Workman's Comp for a torn hamstring tendon in my hip. I had PT and I thought that I was slowly improving, but Everytime I saw him he brushed off my symptoms and my pain location. I had injured my entire right leg and the Med Express urgent care clinic had ordered the MRI of my hip thinking that we would start there. I feel that Dr. S was definitely working for Hartford the W.C company because after 3 mo's my Rt leg was still having a lot of pain. I had reported to him that I was still having a lot of pain especially in my groin area. I was falling down, and having numbness and weakness to the point that I could not drive my own car. I now have copies of my medical records and I have since learned that he never wrote anything about my additional symptoms or my complaints of additional pain. WC asked him if he would also tx my lower leg and per the records he refused. When he D/C'd me I begged him to do another MRI after he said that I was 53 and "this is as good as it is going to get" He completely cleared me to work without any restrictions saying that I had reached MMI with a 0 permanent rating. I was a nurse before my injury and I will never be able to work as one again. It has been almost a year later and I have to use a cane on good days and a walker on bad days. I recently was finally able to see a "change of Drs" and not only do I still have a torn hamstring tendon that has gotten worse, but I also had a torn labrum also in my hip That was causing the deep groin pain that I kept telling him about. It has taken almost a year and $15,000 of additional injuries from falling. My Rt. Lower leg that he refused to treat has permanent ankle instability and nerve damage all the way up the outer side of my leg. All because he was negligent in my treatment, but kuddos to him. He saved the WC so much money almost $20,000 by saying that I was at Maximum Medical Improvement and could now do my job as a nurse. Did I mention that my job terminated my employment and said that due to my injury and my age of 53 that I would be a liability to them if I would continued to work for them. My WC checks stopped and I have almost lost everything this past year. Thank God there are Doctors that are not WC puppets and afraid to do the right thing by challenging WC and treating the patient like a patient... Do no harm!!! Please save yourself and if you do have to see him under Workman's Comp get a copy of your doctor's notes for each visit. I had read a few reviews that were written by other WC patients, With similar experiences. I am guessing that WC companies like Dr. Salinsky because he is very conservative with his WC cases which saves them money. I learned the hard way that you can't have blind faith with some medical "professionals" Now my injuries are permanent because if they had all been properly treated a year ago I would have had a much better quality of life today. I feel like Dr. Salinsky changed my life forever. Don't allow him to do the same to you or a loved one... My guess is that no one will see this as a review...

A nightmare is what I had. I had a repair of my meniscus I went for my follow up visit literally 4 days later and Dr. Salinsky decided after seeing I can’t even walk to send me back to work. I understand he is a workers comp dr and a puppet to them. Where does it stop tho???? When do they care for the patients and not the money. If I could’ve posted a half a star I woudlve 1 star was too high.

Dr. Salinsky has an excellent bedside manner. He took time to explain my condition in an understandable manner. He answered all my questions and some I didnt think to ask and gave alternatives for treatment. Id highly recommend Dr. Salinsky.

I have my appointment 3.15 and I am here 3.00 now start waiting .. 4.15 I ask front desk how long I have to wait. She say dont know his little behind to day . I am thinking I have to sleep here to night.

takes on surgical cases that he is incapable of performing

Sent here by Workers Compensation. Saw dr Salinsky for my shoulder and dr Ililov for my neck. Continue to have severe pain and suffering every day. I explained to dr Salinsky my shoulder is worse than before he operated I couldnt do therapy most of time from neck and shoulder injury. I explained this to dr Salinsky and dr Ililov. Both would tell me I have to talk to other doctor. They would pass the buck and not address my severe pain issues. Dr Ililov did not perform neck surgery but I switched to him after complications experienced from first surgeon in hopes of getting better treatment. It was a serious decision mistake. Ililov told me Id just have to live with chronic pain the rest of my life and Salinsky told me he cant help me any further and that he thinks all my pain is result of the neck injury. Now Ive lost my job cant work due to pain every day all day and living day to day despairing my future. They get rich and if youre a Workers Compensation case no compassion or second thought of the impact theyve caused in your life or career. Even explaining my severe pain Im suffering daily to these doctors they say Im able to go back to work without limitations. Its mind boggling. Only conclusion I can draw is theyre for some reason in the pocket of Workers Compensation or afraid of repercussions from Workers Compensation.

Life changing mistake

4 Years ago I fell at 44 years old racing my son down the street. I needed a complete knee replacement and repair. Dr. Salinsky worked a miracle on me and I cant believe it ever happened. My Quality of Life has been restored and I am able to live a healthy active life. I followed the strict physical therapy from his team and could not be happier with the outcome from my surgery. Great Doctor

I could never be thankful enough for everything that Dr.Salinski has done for me. My operation was a complete success Trust me I was scared to death to get this total hip replacement done and this man made me feel comfortable and made me trust him and I’m so glad I did because I’m walking around today thanks to him. Yeah you’ll be a little bit sore few days after the operation you know but there’s medication it takes care of that but it surely is nothing compared to before the operation the pain and agony it’s finally gone. And they will have you up walking the day of your operation most likely and it’s not hard at all trust me follow what he says to do and you’ll be just fine. Thanks again Dr.Salinski for my new lease on life DeniseTalbott
