I was referred to Dr. Kenneth Joel eight years ago regarding countless surgeries from years of athletics and a devastating injury severing nerves, leading to some paralysis.  Dr. Joel listened patiently to my history. He discussed options and different forms of treatment.  There were never any promises other than his best effort. He has done several procedures that all provided significant relief.  Dr. Joel suggested a medical implant that changed my life. He reviews everything with me, follows up regarding my health, previous treatments/procedures, and medications, and always asks if there is anything else we need to address. There are never any promises but he provides solutions and he has given me “Hope.” I’ve been to numerous Top-Rated Specialists in Orthopedic Surgery, Neuro-Surgery, and Pain Management.  No one compares.
