When I broke my wrist, I was very anxious and Dr. Kish put me at ease by explaining things thoroughly. From the time I entered the OSS office I felt that the staff was very professional and friendly. I am 89 years old and Dr. Kish was able to repair my badly fractured wrist to a level of function that is nearly the same as before the injury. I feel very fortunate that Dr. Kish was my surgeon.
