Patient Reviews
May 09, 2024
I needlessly suffered with back pain that was misdiagnosed for over 30 years until I found Dr. Kihlken. I truly think he and his team are miracle workers. His nurse, Michelle, always seems to know everything about my chart when she enters the room - either she is a speed reader or she just really invests her time in her patients. She has given me so many great suggestions to improve my situation. His entire staff is amazing from check-in to checkout on one side of the hall to surgical staff on the other side of the hall. I truly wish I had found them sooner!
