Excellent doctor, takes his time
May 3, 2025Taimur M.Verified patient
I had an excellent experience from start to finish. The appointment scheduling process was seamless, and the staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming. I was seen promptly, and Dr. Kohler was outstanding. He took the time to thoroughly review my previous scans, but more importantly, he listened to my concerns and treatment goals. It was clear that he was focused on me as a patient, not just the imaging. Too often, providers focus solely on the scans, but Dr. Kohler treated me as an individual and addressed my specific needs. I highly recommend him for anyone seeking personalized and thoughtful care!

Dr. Kohler is an amazing provider. He is always available to answer my questions and put me at ease. I would recommend him to anyone in chronic pain!!
September 7, 2024Tania F.Verified patient
Dr. Kohler is an amazing listener and doctor in general. You can tell he treats his patients like he would want loved ones to be treated at the doctor. It’s hard when you suffer from chronic pain and continually get unempathetic care from medical professions, but this is the opposite.

Extraordinary experience. Dr Kohler is very professional. Answered all our questions and concerns. He talked to my wife on the phone to get additional information about my symptoms and past medical history. I am a 97 yrs old with hard hearing. We left office with a profound sense of gratitude. Dr’s attention is in itself a healing.

Dr Kohler is wise, efficient without rushing with my complicated situation, and very likable, and Camden (the tech) was attentive and real, and kind, and also excellent at his job. Neither were the least bit fake.
