TESTIMONIALS
Dr. Kriel’s expertise and skillful precision in performing my shoulder surgery not only relieved my pain but restored my mobility beyond expectations.
Kobus Rossouw
Dr. Kriel is understanding, professional, friendly and very competent. I can recommend him strongly. The receptionist is very friendly and the doctor is punctual with his appointments, no waiting.
Kees van der Waal
I had a timely and effective surgery from Dr Kriel following a full rupture of my achilles tendon. It's been four months since my surgery and my recovery has been smooth with no post-surgery issues. The entire process has been professional and I received a lot of additional support outside the office.
Jason
My wife had an accident and broke her leg and heel. Dr. Kriel was on duty and what a wonderful experience. He is absolutely the best orthopaedic specialist. My wife received 10 star service. His staff is also very friendly and helpful. I will recommend him everyday.
Nicol Geldenhuys
Dr. Kriel was absolutely phenomenal! Not just professional but also available for any questions I might have had after my achilies operation.
I snapped it 22Feb and was on his table 27 Feb. Still on the heal but great to know that I have Renier in my corner!
