Wonderful Dr. understands what you have to say.
Always a pleasure seeing Dr J Kann. Two major knee replacements coming up…there’s no one else I trust for these
He listens then he discusses what might be going on and an action plan.
Excellent as always
No bedside manner. Did not value me as a patient. Came on with an entourage of people and never asked my permission!
He has done both my knees, very happy with the result.
Outstanding and better looking than his brother
Very fast in and out Could have been more friendly and informative addressing the concerns of the patient .
I worked with Jordan, the PA. Jordan did a fantastic job explaining a lot of my questions, he took time with me, and gave me some potential options and scenarios for moving forward with my treatment. I took it as very sound advice. I look forward to working with the practice.
He was great! So kind and super knowledgeable.
