Didn’t see Steven but saw his assistant. He was wonderful with his injections! Hardly had any pain at all.
I love Steven & Jeffrey , both have done surgery on me with Jeff doing a total knee replacement & Steven doing carpal tunnel surgery HIGHLY recommend them and the Tri State Family of Orthopedic Physicians , thank you guys for all you do ❤️
Dr. Kann is very professional and explained why I was experiencing discomfort in my thumb. I felt so much better knowing the cause and source of my discomfort. We both walked out of the office with a smile on our face and no more discomfort.
Excellent job telling me few things going on with my hand. Didn’t leave wondering. Getting on top of getting it fixed as soon as possible.
Very personable.
Professional, caring, understanding, answers all questions
Best doctor and person took all the stress and worried out of surgery would never go to another surgeon if I had a choice
What can I say Dr Kann is the Best!
Thanks
