Dr. Chin is exemplary. One of the best doctors in the UW
Care provider did not adequately explain to me his treatment protocol leading to unexpected time under restrictions. The only explanation I got was immediately after surgery and it was unclear I would be under restrictions for an additional 4 weeks. This could have been prevented with better explanations weeks ago.
Dr Kennith Chin ankle surgeon he's excellent
Dr. Chin was exemplary. He listened to everything I had to say. He explained everything that he came up with showed me the x-ray explaining it in detail what I was seeing. More doctors need to be like Dr. Chin.
Kind and charismatic, listened to our questions, concerns, and the background we provided for context so he could understand my athletic background and my goals. Dr. Chin also referenced literature/research and provided his own surgery statistics.
Dr Chin was great at walking me through my options and explaining the problem with my ankle. I appreciate he took the time to show me my MRI images to explain why I was still experiencing pain with my injury.
Excellent Doctor
Doc went over MRI and physical exam to describe issues and discussed my concerns. While I am looking surgically correct longtime issues in my ankles, I didn't feel like he was trolling for a surgical candidate and was sure to provide non surgical information
Very good experience, really appreciated the attention and care he put towards patients.
