“The staff was great except one of the reception staff. She was too busy putting on lipstick to even acknowledge us for about 2 minutes. Then never ever made eye contact. ”

Helpful staff Professional , courteous
Verified patient
Staff was very professional in welcoming me, guiding me through the information and paperwork I needed to provide. Dr. Tipireneni was very informative and showed genuine concern for my medical problem. I would highly recommend this office.
Verified patient
I strongly do not recommend. The entire appointment was a mere three minutes, during which a test was ordered. I was asked to return in two weeks without any guidance on how to address the persistent joint issue that is causing significant discomfort. This is unacceptable behavior from any provider, especially one in a more critical-care specialty like orthopedics, where immediate care is essential. The bedside manner was also lacking. A doctor is supposed to ask more questions and at least perform a physical examination. Nothing.
Excellent office staff - very friendly and efficient. Doctor was very prompt, listened to my concerns, explained my options and was quick to understand the hope for quick relief for arthritis in my thumb by way of a cortisone shot - which was expertly administered with absolutely no bruising and offered good relief within 2 days. Very happy.

Good people the Dr had Good bed side manners
He explained he was new to this practice, was very quick to dismiss anything I said and referred me to another doctor. I said I was interested in dry needling which they said they do there and he said I needed to go to a spine specialist. I literally threw money away to see this doctor that was zero help to me. He didn’t provide any exercise options. Any specific doctors next steps anything. Just go see a different doctor didn’t spend more than five minutes with me had no emotion and didn’t care what I said ?
Not the most personable staff or doctor but very fast and organized. Came in filled out paper work went into a room was seen inside of 15 mins. No real introductions but he asked me what happened felt my leg told me my injury got me the boot and I was out of there in 20 mins. No fluff no frills but quick and easy service.
Verified patient
Doctor was great. Initial check in was somewhat difficult for me because I am a senior EVERY FORM was all on a ipad. I can work on a computer keyboard, but that tablet layout and progression confused me. Plus it was difficult to sign my name with a finger nail. All my signatures looked different and I sure could not ever swear that they were mine - seems like a useless legal doc. I WISH I could have filled out the forms in advance - using a link on their website or at least printed the forms prior to my appointment, like so many other offices offer now.

I had an outstanding experience during my first visit with my orthopedic specialist. From the moment I arrived, the staff was welcoming and efficient, making the check-in process smooth and stress-free. Dr. Kishore T. took the time to listen carefully to my concerns and thoroughly explained my diagnosis and treatment options in a way that was easy to understand. I felt heard, respected, and confident in the care I was receiving. Their knowledge and professionalism were immediately apparent, and I appreciated their patient, compassionate approach. I left the appointment feeling informed and optimistic about my recovery. I highly recommend this orthopedic practice to anyone seeking expert, compassionate care.

DrTipirneni was very prompt and professional. Listened to what I had to say and took care of my issue. The lady running the front check in was very efficient! Got me checked in right away. Great experience overall!

Doctor was very helpful and friendly.
Verified patient
He is an amazing doctor! He treated us with great care, patience, and kindness. He took the time to explain everything clearly and made sure we felt comfortable throughout the process. His professionalism and compassion truly stand out. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and caring doctor!
Wait time was very short. Doc was able to quickly determine what was wrong with my rotator cuff by just reviewing an x-ray and examining my shoulder. He was straight forward and prepared to answer any questions I had. I was happy to hear surgery would not be required at this time and was given alternative soloutions.
Kishore is one of the best mot sought out doctors in AZ. I watched him pay out of his own pocket to help someone who couldn’t afford help. The care this doctor establishes for his patients is a type of care you will not find in any other doctor. If you can get in to see him you’d be in the best care. So happy to have found such a great orthopedic surgeon!
This was one of the best visits to see a doctor that I can remember. Very friendly and efficient staff, and Dr Tipirneni took his time to go over my situation, reviewed my X-rays and provided an additional test in his office that I have not seen elsewhere. I would highly recommend Dr. Tipirneni to anyone needing ortho treatment. He’s the BEST!!!
