Dr. K was the best most caring surgeon I have ever met with. He took time to go over all my concerns and questions. He was very thorough and listened to my concerns. He never seemed rushed. I would highly recommend him!
Dr Kastenmeier is very compassionate.I greatly appreciated the time he took to answer questions and give thorough explanations.
The visit with Dr Kastenmier was amazing. So thankful to have him as my Surgeon.
Other than the check in girl being a real crab, the whole experience was great.
Dr gave me hope that I have not had
Dr. Kastenmeier and his PA were professional but spoke in clear understandable language and answering all questions. Also like seeing and having CT scan explained. Left feeling very good.
My procedure was handled very professionally. I didn't like the 6 weeks wait between procedures I thought it could be sooner.
This was my best experience ever. Everyone was very understanding and helpful.
Love every one here. We drive a hour to come here, worth it!!!
Provider was very thorough in his explanations, patient with me as I asked multiple questions, also had great "bedside manner".
Very pleased with the care and concern there.
The surgeon was one the best I ever had
Dr. Andrew Kastenmeier was exceptionally kind, thorough, and professional in explaining the options of therapy for my inguinal hernia. I was made to feel that I was a full participant in any decisions made. I could not have been more pleased and impressed with his consultation, especially since I am myself a retired physician.
I was wowed by Dr. Kastenmeier. I was astounded by his presence and attitude.
Very professional staff. The time the physician and PA spent with me was incredible!!!!!
Exceptionally thorough! Also showed caring by listening to my concerns.
I left there feeling very informed about my care, and feel at ease about what happens next.
Both physician and the physician assistant were exceptional!
