How likely are you to recommend Dr. Kawakita?
Exceptional! Very positive. Dr. Kawakita took the time to answer all of the questions that I had at my initial visit when he didn’t even know whether I was going to have him do surgery for me on my right knee. He showed us diagrams and a video explained everything in detail to myself and my advocate. The same with the second visit, he again spent more time than I expected, making sure that I understood exactly what was going to happen, and what to expect afterward, and the importance of the follow up therapy . I was very impressed with the staff members in the clinic how they keep things moving along on schedule, their positive attitudes. I was impressed with this surgery that he was doing where he would not be cutting the muscles and ligaments that a previous writer has mentioned. That was the procedure I was wanting to have. My surgery went very well in July 2023 and I will have him do surgery on my other knee if that becomes necessary. He was positively recommended by a friend.
