I had both knees replaced by Dr. Gerlinger and would highly recommend him and his team. They very promptly handled any issues I had post surgery, return phone calls quickly and the pre surgery education class was very helpful in easing any concerns I had, and was a great opportunity to ask any questions ahead of time.

Dr Gerlinger and his team replaced both of my knees: Right on Jan 2008 and left on Dec 2013 at BAMC. I was always treated with kindness and respect and all of my needs were met. In 2013, I even drove from Las Vegas to San Antonio just so he could work his magic again. And, more importantly, after 10 years of use and abuse, my knees are functioning just like new. God Bless you Dr Gerlinger. You are a great surgeon.

Dr. Gerlinger has replaced both my hips and through the entire process I have received nothing but professional and courteous care. I rarely have to wait on appointment days and the entire team treats me as a person, not a number. I have referred several people to Dr. Gerlinger and they all have had good experiences.

Very professional staff. Facility is immaculate and very positive interaction from the front desk to the xray staff to the doctor. Appointments are on time. Dr Gerlinger did partial Knee replacements in both knees and I could not be happier with the results. This was done as an outpatient and I was very satisfied with the whole process. Even though I was nervous about the whole procedure I always felt I was well informed from the initial contact to the daily text messages I received through the recovery period. The texts were always motivational in nature and told me what to expect as I was going through the recovery period.

I had partial right knee replacement six weeks ago and I’m able to walk up the stairs do almost all of my regular work and very little pain after surgery. Partial knee replacement was definitely the way to go. I will more than likely have it done on my left knee very shortly. The staff and everyone at the hospital was absolutely courteous and professional. I was recommended to Dr. Gerlinger by another physician That did shoulder surgery on me and couldn’t be more pleased. I suggest to everyone if you don’t need total knee replacement get partial replacement , The recovery time is much less and I’m sure less painful. I highly recommend Dr. Gerlinger and partial knee replacement.

Dr. Gerlinger and his team are the most outstanding medical group I have ever encountered. Highly competent, professional, courteous and compassionate are just a few of the superlatives to describe them. Dr. Gerlinger performed a total knee replacement on me 4 weeks ago and the recovery has been so smooth, we just scheduled the other knee in 3 weeks. I am definitely looking forward to it.

Dr Gerlinger did a total knee replacement and repaired my torn ligament. He was totally professional and made me feel confident the first visit. This was 4 years ago in September and my knee is great.

Dr.Gerlinger and his staff are an outstanding medical group. I had minimally invasive total hip replacement Sept. 14 and six weeks later was released with no restrictions. He was professional and thorough. There was very little pain and felt good from beginning.
