The reviews listed below were collected independently of First State Orthopaedics through rater8. Each review represents an authentic and verified patient experience.
Dr. Kumar and his team made me very comfortable with the procedure I was having. Dr. Kumar talk to me before the procedure checking to see if I had any questions and to make sure I understood what the procedure was all about. As the procedure went on, he explained to me what he was doing and what to expect after the procedure was finished. His team kept checking on me to make sure that I was comfortable. Whatever I needed they gladly accommodate.
