I met with Kurt, Dr Li's PA, & he showed me my xrays & explained how bad my knew are. As an RN of 46 years and a multiple joint replacement recipient, I have a good deal of knowledge of the process. Kurt treated me with the respect I deserve and made sure there are no gaps in my l knowledge of this procedure & my recovery. Plus, his marvelous sense of humor lightened up a visit that can be depressing. Dr Li came in and discussed my past medical history and made sure I had no questions. His approach to the visit was like Kurt's, calm, reassuring and kind. .

Dr. Li is an outstanding surgeon and always tries to answer any and all questions. On my appointment day he was running very behind and did not appear to have sufficient staff/resident support or assistance. This problem does not appear to be uncommon.
