Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Wait time was minimal and appointment moved along smoothly.

He compared previous xrays to new ones and covered changes along with my new needs. He always has offered me great advice and explanations.

I like that he was to the point and didn't mess around. My only downfall was he speaks very fast but his staff makes up for that explaining things. His staff was great.

First visit
Dr K got me in for a consultation in less than two weeks. After reviewing my information he explained the next steps and timeframes in a very clear way. I had all my questions answered.

About Me

care philosophy

I speak with my patients, not at them. Quite simply, my job is to get them back to doing whatever it was that they were doing before they got hurt. I understand what it's like to have to give up something you love doing and hope my patients won't have to.
