Karn was a great Physical Therapist - he always went out of his way to schedule my appointments (sometimes staying late or coming in early) to accommodate my schedule. I felt as though he really cared and wanted to see and help me get better. I would highly recommend him.
He's very informative and very friendly. I can't say anything bad or that anything is wrong with how he does things. Very professional though.

My first visit with Karn Santikul was wonderful. He is professional without being stuffy; caring; is very knowledgeable and with just my first visit in which we only did a few exercises and treatments, I see a marked improvement in my knees. I also feel that he is there for you - the patient - and wants you to get better whether it takes three weeks or three months. I feel he is truly concerned about my getting well.

My son went to see him once his cast came off for a broken elbow. I never got to meet him as my husband took him to the PT sessions. Dr. Santikul was very patient and thorough with him, and now after 4 weeks he got the okay from his doctor to resume sports. Thanks, Dr. Santikul!

He is hands down amazing. Really smart, really friendly, and makes the whole experience great. I'm feeling a lot better than when I started a couple weeks ago.
He is the most pleasant person to work with. Also very informative and knowledgeable about therapeutic care. All my questions are answered with consideration and thoughfulness. I never feel rushed and accomplish much during my 30 minute sessions. I learn something new at each session as well. I would highly recommend Karn Santikul to family, friends and coworkers.
