Testimonials
"I saw Dr. Michelle Kew for a knee injury incurred while skiing. MCLs torn, ACL torn, meniscus torn etc. She was fabulous. Did not jump immediately to surgery as recent research had shown some possible pathways without - but after a few weeks she indicated surgery would be required for ACL replacement and meniscus trim. Could not have felt more confident in her abilities. She is experienced, up on latest research and techniques, super smart, doing her own research, accomplished, recommended and direct. Perfect. We got to know her during course of treatment and found her very personable and funny (and very smart). At the end of the day I want my doctor/surgeon to be great at what she does; I also found her personable, affable, warm and caring. Entire staff was great. They are busy but took time needed to discuss issues, answer questions etc. Would give Dr. Kew and team a 10 if I could. Today I had my last checkup post-surgery and I graduated! Thank you!"
"Dr Kew and her medical team are amazing. I had a pectoralis major tendon repair about a month ago. I was pleasantly surprised by how quickly the pain subsided after the surgery and I didn't need the oxyCODONE pain killer prescribed to me. Dr Kew must have done a great job. I was referred to her by a rehab doctor and I was told that Dr Kew tends to be more conservative in her treatment and will only recommend surgery if it is truly necessary. I particularly appreciate this approach (who would want to get cut open?!). She is also incredibly patient. There was one time I was late for my appointment but she was still willing to see me. I overheard her conversation a little bit on the phone with another patient discussing the treatment option and whether surgery is the best course of action. I waited for 25 minutes in the room but I didn't mind because I knew she was doing her job to help another patient and well I was late. At the end, she said "I had endless time for you" to the other patient on the phone as the door to my room propped open. Such work ethics is admirable. Also, Dr Kew and her PA Michelle will respond to message on the app quickly even on the weekends. I am glad to have found her and her team, and to be on my way to full recovery."
"Dr. Kew is incredible. She performed a distal bicep repair on my left arm and it was great. No pain throughout the entire process, she was fast and empathetic in addressing all my concerns, there were no complications and I wasn't in pain one time throughout the entire process. Could not recommend more."
