Thank you, Dr. Kish, for being a great surgeon. You have repaired both of my shoulders and they are doing well. I appreciated your up-beat friendliness, kindness and concern for my wellbeing. Your staff are great, too. Thank you again, Kathy W.

I thought he was very nice. We could see from the x-ray that my finger has not healed, so I need to wear my brace for another three weeks.
