I found the provider to be very arrogant and rude. Asked why I was there and I said I fell and hurt my hip and had difficulty and my doctor recommended a visit he then asked if my doctor had a medical degree why would they send there and then raised his voice and told me that I was taking the place of someone who needs care. His body language was standing and talking to me with his arms wrapped around his chest and basically letting me know I was wasting his time. He seemed to be very arrogant and cranky! I have never had this type of experience at Mass General Brigham. I have the upmost respect for everyone who has taken care of me and was quite upset by this doctor's behavior.

Dr Estok gave me excellent advice about my knees with a view to the healthiest long-term medical treatment. I'm not a candidate for knee replacement surgery and Dr Estok clearly articulated the reasons and recommended a sensible conditioning program combined with me needing to moderate my athletic expectations as I am now in my 60s. It's difficult to accept age-related changes and limitations but I respect Dr Estok's holistic diagnosis and recommendations and they were in my best physical interests. Excellent orthopedic advice.

When I saw Dr. Estok, it was to get a second opinion on my knee situation. He was extremely pompous, didn't listen to my questions, never looked at the x-ray that he made me take right before seeing him. We got nowhere in our discussion. He was angry that he was being asked to give a second opinion on another MGD doctor, it would seem. [redacted] He was rude and immediately cut me off to tell me how much he knew about this and that. And I left the exam room dumber than when I went in. [redacted]

I found Dr Estock continues to really care about learning how I am doing after several years post surgery. He asked many questions, had me demonstrate how I would attempt to tie my shoe laces, then took the time to point out how I could accomplish this task easier and safer! I will miss visiting with him as he plans to retire in two years and my next app't is in three. I know how fortunate I was to have had such an accomplished surgeon [redacted]
