Great results and bedside manner
Verified patient
Just okay, really. He had two students in the room and never asked me about it. That’s not okay in my book - especially being someone with severe anxiety. I never got an official diagnosis, more like “let’s try this and hope it works” it left me wondering if I’ll have to go back for a third time to just try something else.
Verified patient
Amazing Dr. The world's greatest bedside manner. Very thorough about my upcoming surgery. The best Orthopedic surgeon I've ever been to.
Verified patient
My wait time was fairly short. Their staff was extremely friendly, helpful, and they explained my problems and the path to correct the issue. I highly recommend this office.
Verified patient
I would highly recommend Dr. Karsch. He had an amazing bedside manner. Everyone in that office especially his Nurse made me feel so comfortable, they were so thorough. I felt like I was part of their family.
Verified patient
I was initially seen by a physician's assisatnt student. She then stood in the hallway talking with the doctor and repeating what I had told her. I prefer to talk to my doctor personally rather than having my symptoms relayed by a student. Even though the doctor had already diagnosed my pain, he then said "let's do an x-ray too." I am not a fan of unnecessary diagnostics or expenses. The office seemed like a factory where they were just churning through patients.
Dr. Karsch was very professional, and he was very nice!! He is an excellent physician. I would definitely recommend him to my family and friends.
Verified patient
