Patient Reviews
Jan 20, 2020
In Oct.,2019, Dr. Kasten and his staff performed approximately 14 hours of surgery over 2 days on me. I had a sagittal imbalance which made me unable to walk erect, thus I was always bent at a 90 degree angle. The imbalance was caused by a prior back surgery in Sept. of 2018, by a Grand Rapids surgeon. Also complicating the procedure was my Muscular Dystrophy disease. Dr. Kasten was very frank about the risks involved and the success factor. I am very ecstatic to report that my surgery was a complete success and I can walk perfectly erect thanks to Dr. Kasten and his team. I am forever grateful that this man gave me my quality of life back.
