I injured my right index finger and after 3 weeks it was still painful. I saw Dr. Kaiser and he said it was a tendon that was angry and he injected it. The next day the pain was almost gone and 6 days later I’m pain free. So happy I went to see him.

I saw Dr. Kirk Kaiser for an elbow badly damaged by RA, and he was excellent. Because I am not in pain, he advised a multi-level plan to maintain use of the elbow before any consideration of a replacement.

Dr. Kaiser is a very wonderful doctor. He knows his craft so well that you can ask him anything and he will give you straight factual answers, in my case validated and confirmed what I thought I was feeling and experiencing is actually what it is, along with discussion of what could benefit you short term and long term as well as his recommendations of what treatments are available for your condition. Highly recommending Dr. Kaiser!
