Patient Reviews
Sep 10, 2023
I am extremely cautious about medical procedures and usually seek experts at Cleveland Clinic or OSU for anything that worries me. Dr. K blows them out of the water. His skill, experience, and talent is unmatched and myself and three other family members have had amazing experiences with him and his nursing and anesthesia team. We are so lucky to have him local, but I would drive hours for him to do our procedures if I had to. Trustworthy, down to earth, skilled, couldn't be more pleasant and at the top of his game. Wish I had a Dr. K in every medical specialty. We recommend him to everyone. I've seen some of the best 'rock star' expert docs in the most renown big city facilities in the state and Dr. K and his team surpass them all. He is that good. He is very talented and experienced, and has the skill and knowledge to think outside the box if need be. He really cares about each patient and really wants to do everything he can to help each one. Hope he never retires!
