First thing, he made sure to listen to me thoroughly and then asked questions to gain a better understanding of my symptoms. Then made sure that his diagnosis made sense with my understanding.

Thanks Dr Kunz for answering my worst fear. I knew the Synovial Ca dx was extremely unlikely (2%) but I try not to diagnose myself (educate yes) but diagnose No! Take care everyone! Enjoy the cool while we have it!!

Dr. Kunz always makes me feel like a valuable patient, taking time explaining everything I don’t interested in helping me in any way he can. I’ve gone to him for a few years now it’s always been a pleasant experience and he has helped me and concerned about my well-being.

Dr. Kunz always has a smile on his face. He makes sure I am comfortable and okay during the cortisone shots procedure. He took the time to answer the questions I had about my knees. I always feel at ease when visiting Dr. Kunz.
