The staff performed their jobs in a friendly and efficient manner. Dr Kidder impressed me with his experience, and compassionate concern. He gave me options to consider regarding surgery, provided percentages of possible issues that might occur, and likely recuperation time. I can now make an informed decision. I did not feel rushed, I asked every question I could think of and Dr Kidder answered everything I asked and gave answers to questions I hadn’t thought of. I highly recommend Dr Kidder.
Answered all my questions, he was short and to the point without being rushed.
The appointment was on time. I found Dr. Kitter to be very knowledgeable and I was impressed with his diagnosis.
Dr. Kidder is the best! Always friendly and wants to get your issues resolved with little or minimal pain. I had a complete shoulder replacement and I am very pleased with results. Thx to all his staff also.
Dr Kidder is so kind, caring and professional.
I highly recommend Dr. Kidder for any shoulder related issues!
Even though he was having a very busy day and behind schedule, he didn’t rush and acted like he had all the time in the world. Love him.
Dr kidder is great and rates a 5 from me. The hour and a half wait to see him was not so great.
He answered all my questions where I can understand everything
I absolutely love and recommend Dr. Kidder.
