Are you tired of seeing everyone except the doctor? At our practice every appointment is with Dr. Kanaan, and no one else. We usually see patients within 1 week of calling and most times within 48 hrs.
Dr. K’s Philosophy:
We focus entirely on non-surgical and minimally invasive treatments to relieve pain, promote healing, rehabilitate, and prevent future injuries. We understand that the key to a long and healthy lifestyle is to stay active, and we make every attempt to return patients to the quality of life that allows them to enjoy recreational and daily activities they enjoy.
