Dr. K seems to care about me regarding this fractured vertebra surgery results and found another back issue in the vertebra below the repaired vertebra. Gave me options and time to recover from this surgery and see if and how much pain the other vertebra create.

Dr. K has a great beside manor. He was very honest and thorough in explaining my problems. He explored all options before surgery. My surgery was incredibly successful. I had extensive back problems & pain for two years. Almost immediately after surgery pain from those problems was gone. After 6 weeks of recovery I have no pain & feel normal again.

Because he’s very honest and authentic, it seems, in explaining his medical diagnosis and his rationale for the surgery he is proposing. I felt he was someone I could trust and that he has all the professional skills he needs to do a good job for me.
