Review for Dr. Schmidt
Dr Erik Kroger was me surgeon replacing my left knee in 2019 and my left hip in 2021. He communication skills, attention to answering your questions and operative experience were just a few reasons for my successful recovery. The best PT services would be right up there as well. Love Kaiser!

Review for Dr. Kroger
I would highly recommend Dr. Anderson. She is very helpful, kind and patient. She took time to get to know me and my concerns. She helped me navigate a sometimes complicated referral system.

Review for Dr. Anderson
She is a terrible doctor. She is dismissive and unhelpful. I expressed over and over how sick and in pain I am all the time and she did nothing at all to help me. I am beyond angry at how awful she treated me. At this point I just wish I could be put out of my misery so I didn't have to live like...

Review for Dr. Thukkani
Made a good book recommendation, however I found a doctor with qualifications I prefer. Nice person but I needed someone with different expertise and experience.
