Dr. Kersten is an exceptional orthopedic surgeon, and I couldn’t be more grateful for the care I received from him. He is incredibly knowledgeable, thorough, and genuinely takes the time to listen and explain everything in a way that makes you feel comfortable and informed. What really stood out to me was his wonderful bedside manner. He is kind, compassionate, patient, and truly makes you feel like more than just another patient. I never felt rushed, and he made sure all of my questions and concerns were addressed. I would highly recommend Dr. Kersten to anyone looking for an orthopedic surgeon who combines excellent medical care with genuine compassion and a caring approach.
