I have seen Dr. Kaiser several times over the past few years for various hand and shoulder problems caused by osteoarthritis. Dr. Kaiser was very helpful and always explained things to me in layman's terms. My issues were always resolved with steroid injections but if surgery was ever required I would not hesitate to have him perform any procedures. Thank you Dr. Kaiser for helping me. I have recommended you to other people with various hand and arm issues.

Dr Kaiser is an amazing orthopedic surgeon. He takes time to listen to you, address your concerns and makes sure to explain everything and that you understand it. I have had 5 procedures through him and there isn't a doctor that I trust more than Dr Kaiser. Very caring and compassionate

At a first time visit, I found Dr. Kaiser to be very knowledgeable, kind and patient. He took the time and answered all my questions in detail in a very non-rushed calming atmosphere. He gave me the best of his expertise in order that I might make a decision about surgery.
