“I saw Dr. Shatynski because of numbness in my head and extremities. I found him to be a very thorough doctor, spending approximately 45 minutes in total with me - much more time than I have had any doctor spend with me for any reason at any office visit ever. He asked many questions, patiently listened to my long-winded answers, showed my husband and me my X-rays and described each issue with them - in terms that were not difficult for the lay person to understand. He then spoke his notes into his dictation machine while I was in his presence so that I could correct anything he may have misunderstood or miscommunicated for my file. He gave me exercises to do so that I could see progress in the alleviation of my symptoms, and told me that if I did see improvement (which I did) to cancel the next appointment (which I did). I was extremely pleased with my visit.

“Never have I encountered a doctor who truly listens and hears what their patient has to say as I have with Todd Shaytnski. I have never felt rushed during any of my appointments. I got started later in life exercising, at age 55 running and then weight lifting & group exercise classes. Have had many bumps along the way and a severe injury twenty one months ago, gr III-IV gastrocnemius tear and have been extremely satisfied with the treatment/care I've received from Dr. Shatynski. I think what speaks volumes to me is that he's an athlete (Ironman and runner) so he understands a patient's active lifestyle and since he has had knee surgery totally understands what it is like to be sidelined for a while or forever. I also like the fact that he's a sports med doc, not a surgeon so I really feel he looks at the patient in a different way than a surgeon might.”
“Dr. Shatynski is always friendly, warm, and takes his time to talk to me and explain things about my condition. He helps me to feel at ease and not be nervous about injections. The injections are a god-send for me. They help me to be more mobile with much less pain, which has helped me to be able to lose weight and take some of the pressure off my joints. The first time I had an injection, I was very nervous and Dr. Shatynski was very comforting, which helped me to relax. I am so grateful for his gentle manner and professionalism!”
“Dr. Shatynski is efficient without rushing, so he stays on schedule while giving each patient the time they need and deserve. His approach to diagnostics is prudent, ordering high-tech imaging only when appropriate. I particularly like that he dictates his chart notes while with the patient, which adds to his efficiency while capturing detail while fresh in his mind, as well as sharing with the patient what is going in the chart.”
“My husband, Richard (also a patient), and I are VERY pleased. Dr. Shatynski is very thorough, easy to understand, and takes time to listen. We never feel rushed. Also, one thing I particularly like is that he dictates our session in front of us, so I know he heard our issues correctly.
All the staff is pleasant, and appointments are scheduled in a timely manner. Good experience.”
“Dr. Shatynski was awesome, friendly, supportive, and at the same time thorough, specific with explanations, and very professional. I highly recommend him.”
“I visited several physicians in various practices before seeing Dr. Shatynski. I was thoroughly impressed by how patient he was in listening to the issues that I'm facing. He took the time to learn about what is hurting me and was caring, kind, and gentle. It was clear that he genuinely cares about his patients and this was refreshing after my past experiences. I highly recommend Dr. Shatynski without reservations and I'm so grateful for his help.”
“While training for a half-marathon, I started to experience knee pains. I was referred to Dr. Shatynski for a consult. He was friendly, professional, and thorough. His diagnosis and recommendations were instrumental in recovering from an IT band injury that was a result of over-training. He provided me with advice and a plan to heal and prevent the injury from reoccurring. I was very pleased with him and would not hesitate to refer or return to him for treatment in the future.”
