Dr. Sean Kaminsky, MD

I cracked my left femur and was terrified as I had never had surgery before. I was literally having panic attacks. After I met with Dr. Kaminsky he managed to calm me down and he did the surgery that day. He was very kind and reassuring. Now I know where to go if I ever break another bone.

Great surgeon in my opinion, even better person, excellent choice having him do the surgery to repair my right shoulder. He makes you feel at ease talking to him, the staff is great. Had rehab done at his facility. Excellent results from the rehab staff, friendly and supportive.

Dr. Sean Kaminsky is a true professional, caring doctor. Quite honestly the best I've seen in a long time. He takes time with his patients and explains everything so well. If I ever have to have shoulder replacement surgery or any orthopedic surgery and care, he is the only one for me!Thanks so much Dr. K and team. You have made this easy to get on the road to recovery!Melanie Crow

My son waited 3 weeks to be seen in hopes that the doctor would explain options and go over his MRI that he was told to bring a copy of. My son and husband waited over an hour past appointment time to be in the room with the dr for less than 5 minutes. When my husband asked if he wanted the disc, he said no I read the report. He told him he can either get surgery of live with it. He did not explain anything in regards to the issue at hand. Needless to say, we booked with a different dr. The situation was completely different. Very happy with the new MD! Took time to show my son the MRI and explain in detail what was happening. Showed a model of the knee and where the ACL and Meniscus are located and where his tears were ect… bedside manner is very important and taking the time to explain things should be a priority!

Onsite PT is specialized for the surgery you have. Normally one therapist per one patient- at the most, 1 to 2..

Dr Kaminsky is one of the best in his field. My recovery was, less than half the time of my other shoulder, which was done by another doctor. Very little pain, was off of pain meds after 4 days! So manorly and humble. He really cares about his patients!

Surgery on left shoulder with rehab and then right shoulder and rehab. Great outcomes and am now getting back to my normal self w/o pain. Highly recommended.

Reverse shoulder replacement successful by any measure with near full function restored. Surgery November 11, completed PT last week, and can do anything I need to do with my right arm. Pain was nearly constant before and zero pain now. Dr Kaminsky and his office staff are top notch!!

This being my first surgery I can say that my shoulder hasn’t felt this strong in over 20 years! The care and attention he and his team have given me made me feel comfortable about going through the procedure.

I have had surgery on both shoulders and still had problems. Dr. Kaminsky did surgery on my shoulder on 11/16/2022 and I have not had any pain in the right shoulder since the surgery. My shoulder has never felt or been as good as it is now. No pain, it does not act as a rubber band when I am reaching outward. I am so glad for Dr. Kaminsky, my shoulder has never been as good as it is now. I will have him for my Left shoulder.

Dr.Kaminsky did my reverse shoulder replacement surgery that fixed what 2 previous surgeries hadn't fixed. I'm tickled with the results. The recovery has been faster than I anticipated and I have better use of my arm than I've had for several years.

Dr Kaminsky is a awesome surgeon. He repaired my meniscus/tear on my shoulder. Not only did he repair mine, he did my husbands as well. I also did my PT in his office, (its all right there and is SO nice)! You will have your follow up appts, and PT all in the same place! I also cant say enough for his wonderful PT staff! You will be so glad you picked this surgeon!

I have had a good experience with Dr Kaminsky.He has preformed superior capsules construction on left shoulder after two rotator cup surgeries failed,still good five years out.He preformed a reserve shoulder replacement 6 weeks ago,pain gone and no pins and needle feelings anymore.I am recovering well.Dr. Kaminsky also did a carpal tunnel Capal tunnel surgery on right arm.Very friendly and capable surgeon.

Dr. Kaminsky had to repair a rotator cuff that I had 2 previous surgeries on that failed. I went to see him for a second opinion and I knew that I was now with the best surgeon. Saw him today for 3 month post-op and he was amazed. I can't say enough about Dr. Kaminsky and his staff. Thank you so much Dr. Kaminsky for making me feel so much better.

In my search for one of the top orthopedic shoulder surgeons in Nashville, I found Dr Kaminsky. After reading several reviews, I knew he was the one for me. After living with a partial rotator cuff tear for many years, I completely tore it playing pickleball. As a competitive player, I was crushed knowing I was going to have to have surgery and miss four to six months of competition. For the amount of damage that was done and the repairs he had to make, Dr Kaminsky put my shoulder back together and 3 months later, I have returned to pickleball! He is an amazing surgeon and doctor. He is very kind and empathetic. He takes the time to listen to you and answer all of your questions. I am so grateful for Dr Kaminsky and his skills for getting me back on my feet or I guess I should say back on the court, in no time! Thanks, Dr. Kaminsky!

I want to express my gratitude for the wonderful experience I received through my recent surgery on my right rotator cuff. From the first day I scheduled my initial appointment to today, I was treated by Dr. Kaminsky and all members of his staff in the most professional, compassionate and kind manner possible. Dr. Kaminsky was efficient and personable in coordinating the complete process needed for a smooth experience. He gave me confidence in his diagnosis and treatment by listening and giving me clear directness of what I would be experiencing. Dr. Kaminsky and his entire staff are outstanding!! I would highly recommend him to anyone who is looking for an amazing Orthopedic Surgeon. If I could give Dr. Kaminsky and his staff ten stars I would. Thank you, Dr. Kaminsky!!!

I injured my shoulder on the job and selected Dr. Kaminsky from a list of doctor offices given too me from my workers comp adjuster. It was the BEST decision I made! Being injured and hurting with surgery weighing on my mind was nerve racking, but Dr Kaminsky and his EXCELLENT staff he assembled put me at ease and made the process as easy as it could possibly be. The surgical team was GREAT and did a FANTASTIC job on the day of surgery. It was my first time to have any type of surgery, and I was very impressed and comforted with the competence and smooth flow of precision of the surgical team. A week later I got too meet my physical therapist. Mr Nolan and Ms Vanessa are AWESOME! The care I received and witnessed others receiving was TOP-NOTCH! If you are in the unfortunate situation of having an injury and need a Great Doctor with a Great supporting staff I highly recommend Dr. KAMINSKY! THANK YOU DR. KAMINSKY AND YOUR WONDERFUL STAFF!!

great shoulder doctor

Words I hope will guide you to making the right decision... I walked into his office nearly 3 years ago with a 5 year old injury to my shoulder. He is a very personable man. Soft spoken yet driving. He listens and actually responds appropriately to the questions you ask, not just giving some off the shelf comment. Dr Kaminsky actually spends time with you during your appointment. He's not just in and out, so have a little patience when you are waiting for him in the room. Once he gets in there, you will appreciate the way he really takes the time with his patients. I am eternally gratefully for the gift of healing that I have received by God's grace guiding Dr Kaminsky's hand and suggestions. It has been an gift and God send to have such a caring, compassionate, knowledgeable, and understanding surgeon. There's no doubt in my mind that it stem cell therapy accelerated my healing and completely healed the right shoulder. If you can get it, it's worth trying.

I slipped and fell on my right wrist and broke it in several places. I am 49 years old, and this was the first time I had broken any bones, but thankfully, I picked the right surgeon for the job. Dr. Kaminsky did such an excellent job on the surgery, that I cannot tell that I had an injury there. He literally gave me the ability to write, work, and live normally again, with no pain. He is a fantastic surgeon, and I would highly recommend him to anyone for any type of surgery he performs. Thank you, Dr. Kaminsky!
