Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Excellent
Dr Karr listened and gave me options on treatment. No pressure. He took time to resolve a minor issue in my appointment, instead of saying I had to make another appointment. I will be having surgery in January and I feel very confident and relaxed to go forward with surgical treatment.

He really cares about Quality of Life
He really put my mind at ease about my upcoming surgery. I had procrastinated on making the call for a visit. He immediately removed a painful growth of tissue beneath and between my toes and explained how my hammer toes were impacting how I walk. The surgery was easy to understand the way he explained it. He made me feel so much better as this surgery would be number 10. and I may need more but prompt treatment was available for arthritis. Dr.Karr really cared about my feelings and understood my fear of one more surgery. He made me feel at peace. I really trust him with my care.

Dr Carr laid out exactly what he wanted to do when performing my foot surgery. Went mostly as planed and I am happy so far with the recovery. Looking forward, after the next four weeks, to walking pain free and no limp.

A Great Visit
Dr Karr was great. He listened to my concerns and carefully examined my foot. His explanation of recommendations for care were clear, thorough and included the why in addition to the what. He answered questions and we left feeling optimistic and confident in the process for surgery and recovery to which we agreed

Exceptional surgeon
Dr. Sean Karr is an excellent surgeon. He explains everything he needs to do before surgery and why it should be done, answering every question and addressing every concern. He is delightfully personable, with a cute sense of humor. His bedside manner is beyond compare. At follow up appointments after surgery he patiently answers every question and concern. He gives the air of confidence without arrogance. I highly recommend Dr. Sean Karr.

I was very satisfied with my care, the only concern that I had were the dirty sheets and dirty pillow cases that were on the x=examining table I was sat at. They really should be changed after each patient, that was somewhat unhealthy.
