Dr. Karns listened to myneeds and helped me meet the goals I had. I finally am functioning after 5 months. He is amazing!
Thanks very much. I'm walking without pain for the first time in two months. I hope this injection last a long time. Dr. Karns is a real professional and a kind person. Thanks
I have not yet had the test that was ordered for me by this provider, so that is why they have not checked in with me on the results.
Dr Michael Karns is an excellent physician. His nurse is very attentive as well.
He was wonderful. Understanding. Knowledgeable. Kind. Terrific experience
I really appreciate his time and his conservative approach to my health. I feel I'm getting the best of care and I really appreciate it!
Dr. Karns provided an easily-understandable explanation of my diagnosis, even referencing my recent x-rays to aid In describing my Issue. ***
The office staff was excellent.
Very comfortable and nicely done
He was attentive and available
My experience with this doctor has always been good. But at this juncture of my care it seems that I'm going to need a knee replacement. Of course he recommended some doctors for me for consultation. I would recommend him to anyone who asked me for a orthopedic doctor
All members that I encountered during this visit were very caring and professional.
I never have a problem with Dr Karns
I thought it was awful they scheduled a follow up without even asking me if it would work. It did not work so I has to change it.
Excellent care. Professional, kind, listened and offered options for pain relief.
Explained everything very well
Dr. Karns, Dr. ***, and the rest of their team were very kind and respectful. They both took my concerns into account, but also ultimately gave their own recommendation as to what treatment plan should be pursued. I felt like they listened to me and tried to guide me to what would be the best possible option.
Everyone was very good with my visit. I didn't take long to see the Dr. & were not held there for any length of time.

Dr. Karns is the the best. He operated on my knee back in march was attentive to my rehab goals and recommended a similar thinking physical therapist. He kept up with my progress during PT, gave me excellent feedback and helped me reach my goals thus far. I could not have found a better orthopedic surgeon.
Dr. Karns and his staff are outstanding! Everyone is extremely nice and very friendly. I would most definitely recommend Dr. Karns.
