Kayal Orthopaedic Center

I am a professional ballroom dancer. Dr. Jeff Pope looked me in my eyes, told it to me straight, didn’t waste my time or my money, and I had an excellent experience at Kayal. I would highly recommend this practice and this Dr. specifically. His entire staff spoke of him in the absolute highest regard, and he made a painful shoulder injury literally disappear like magic. It was painless, expedient relief of debilitating pain, and it was magical. The next day I felt like I could jump across the street in a single bound and I danced for eleven hours with a smile on my face.

Originally saw doctor Pope for my trigger finger and lower back issues. He is a great doctor! That only lasted for a short period of time. Now it's constantly his PA's that see his patients and they don't seem interested when you tell them what's going on. Also they are NEVER on time. Today I waited 30 minutes and was never called into the room. I walked out and never going back.

Beware of Excessive Charges and Hidden Costs While the medical care at Kayal was competent, the billing practices were outrageous and left me feeling completely taken advantage of. My daughter suffered a simple ankle sprain. We first visited a local urgent care where she received an X-ray, diagnosis, and ankle brace—all for a reasonable $200 total (with my $35 copay included). They suggested a follow-up with an orthopedist, so we chose Kayal. We brought the original X-rays and brace to the appointment. Despite having everything needed to assess her injury, Kayal insisted on repeating the X-rays and replacing the existing brace with one nearly identical to the original. Their diagnosis was exactly the same: a sprained ankle. The difference? The bill was over $1,600—including $140 for their brace and hundreds more for redundant imaging. Because of how they billed, they maxed out insurance reimbursement limits from two different companies, leaving me with an additional $165 balance for X-rays alone—on top of what insurance had already paid. In short, Kayal’s prices were exorbitant, unjustified, and far beyond industry norms for the same services. The experience was a hard lesson in how some medical providers exploit billing systems at patients’ expense. If you value transparency, fairness, and integrity in healthcare pricing, I strongly recommend looking elsewhere before choosing Kayal.
