Had a pretty nice and quick checkup - got an xray for my wrist, accurately diagnosed so far, and it has been gradually approving with the suggested treatment. Would go back and would recommend!

Fantastic bedside manner. Explains things in layman’s terms. He and office staff are very kind & respectful. Office is so clean. Wait time is usually around 10 min at most and when I see the Dr, then need x rays, back to the Dr, etc., there’s typically not much wait time btwn all of that. 10/10 would recommend Dr. K to anyone.
January 12, 2026Danielle F.Verified patient
I cannot recommend this Dr enough. He is thorough, caring, and excellent at what he does. This is a doctor that you will feel comfortable with and who won’t forget what he talked with you about the last time you met. He remembers all the details and gives excellent advice and reassurance. I wouldn’t choose any other doctor.
