It was a pleasure to meet Dr. Genin. He was very kind, responsive to my concerns, and supportive of my knee concern. He suggested I purchase a brace to assist with my knee concern. Once I arrived home, I immediately purchased the Reparel knee sleeve, per Dr. Genin's recommendation and am amazed by its performance thus far!

We couldn't have asked for a better experience. After some frustrating visits with other providers, finding Dr. Genin was such a relief. He took his time with my son's elbow injury, asked a lot of questions to get a complete understanding, really listened to both of us, and explained everything clearly. He involved my son in the discussion, making him feel comfortable and part of his own care. Nothing felt rushed-Dr. Genin was thorough and kind and clearly an expert in his field. We left feeling informed, confident in next steps, and truly cared for. Highly recommend!

Dr. Genin went above and beyond to make sure I understood everything about the procedure we were discussing he took his time with me and listened to all my concerns he made sure and called himself to get my ultrasound scheduled for the same day after seeing him. Knowing I had driven quite a long distance for my appointment at Fairview Hospital. He is very honest, somewhat arrogant which I liked that about him had a great sense of humor and absolutely a terrific doctor. Was very attentive and caring when he performed my procedure. I have high hopes he set me up with a terrific physical therapist in Mentor. I'm all around extremely happy I chose Dr.Genin as my second opinion
