Dr. Gerlinger and his medical team did both of my Partial Knee Replacements this year. So well in fact that after each surgery I was walking around without crutches after the 3rd day. I'm 56 and didn't expect both knees to recover so fast. I just want to personally thank Dr. Gerlinger and his team for their professionalism and friendly attention to my needs. Honestly I couldn't ask for more, I received the best of care.

I had a partial knee replacement in October 2022, I found Dr, Gerlinger to be straightforward, friendly and professional. He and his staff answered all my questions thoroughly, and I found the daily text messages to be quite helpful and encouraging. Should I need to have my other knee replaced in the future, I will absolutely go back to Dr. Gerlinger. Highest recommendation!

Evaluation and diagnosis was very clear. Explanation of the surgery was straightforward. High level of communication helped me feel more confident. Surgery went very well with immediate relief from arthritic pain. Helpful post op texts and reminders to guide recovery. Excellent staff /associates were positive and supportive throughout. Most importantly - very good results from the surgery.

Dr. Gerlinger and his team were a delight to work with. He was attentive and took his time to answer all and any questions/concerns. My mother had a complete knee replacement and Dr. Gerlinger/ his staff made sure that she was taken care of.

Precise and competent surgeon and staff. Had both my knees replaced in 2017/2018 several months apart at age 25. Staff explained and put me at ease. I'v been working out, climbing,swimming walking etc. with very good results. Was depressed thinking what I had to get done these major surgeries and what life would be after. God bless this surgeon and the staff along with everyone at Rush.

If you have any knee pain, consult Dr. Gerlinger. If the partial knee replacement is right for you it is a great solution with much easier recovery than the full replacement. On top of that, extremely organized, professional, and ensure you are well taken care of. Highly recommend.

Dr. Gerlinger and his staff went above and beyond my expectations. They are very professional, always punctual and extremely pleasant to deal with. I would highly recommend them to anybody in need of hip surgery. Mine was virtually painless and very easy to recover from. His daily texts were extremely helpful.

I’m 66 and need full replacements in both knees. I’m 6 weeks from my first surgery. The other knee to be operated on Feb’ 23. I was told repeatedly that I would do great. And I did do very well- The key for me was following Dr. G’s text messages and finding the best Physical Therapist possible. Those 2 features will result in a successful outcome. It did for me. Everybody at MOR was great. Thanks so much. Trust the process…it works!!

Dr Gerlinger and his staff were extremely communicative for the entire 6 weeks post-op. The text system used was exceptional and walks u thru rehab milestones and exercises. I happen to have a harder rehab since I needed 2 knee replacements(1 down , 1 to go 1st qtr 2023. This was conveyed to me pre-op. I have to shout out to all the PT's at Rush in Oakbrook as well. All aspects pre/post op are very well run!

I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Gerlinger and his entire team. I had my right knee replaced and the entire process has been smooth and supportive. I loved the text messages sent by his office as I have enjoyed both the motivational texts as well as additional exercises with targets each week. They really helped me stay focused on my recovery. I am looking forward to scheduling my left knee replacement very soon.

If a partial knee is right for you, I highly encourage consultation with Dr. Gerlinger. Extremely professional, and thorough, and the recovery is much quicker than a full knee replacement.
