Dr. Kaz was very thorough with examinations. He gave choices for treatment naming pros and cons.
I cannot recommend Dr. Ari Kaz highly enough! From the very first consultation, it was clear that he prioritizes patient care over unnecessary procedures, taking the time to truly listen and guide me toward the best possible treatment. The level of attention and personalized care I received was outstanding—every visit felt purposeful, and I always left with clear next steps and reassurance that I was in excellent hands.Thanks to Dr. Kaz, I’ve been able to move forward with PT and see great improvements.
I have a very long history of angle fractures and torn ligaments. I saw him two years ago with a very painful injury. He told me I was being dramatic and scolded me when I couldn’t put my weight on my ankle. He was so annoyed that I was upset during this appointment. He told me I was lying about my medical history of ankle injuries which is an absolutely absurd thing to say. He interrupted me throughout the appointment and told me to lose weight. Saw him again recently seeking a physical therapy referral for chronic pain. He... read more
I don't think I can thank Dr. Kaz and his wonderful team enough...I suffered for over 4 years with an undiagnosed foot condition - Northwestern Orthopedics said i needed arch supports; Lincoln Foot and Ankle said i needed foot exercises and steroid injections. By the time i found Dr. Kaz my foot was in terrible shape. Dr Kaz suspected a torn planter plate, and recommended an ultrasound, by in his opinion the best radiologist in the area, Dr. Kinkaid. Dr. Kinkaid confirmed the planter plate was disintegrated thus causing my t... read more
I was referred to IBJI by an urgent care facility after I broke my ankle in several places. They assured me when making my appointment that I should see Dr Kaz. He was straightforward, gave me reasonable expectations for my recovery and performed my extensive surgery. He also has a great humor to him which I appreciate. I’m 3 and a half months past surgery and walking 10,000 steps a day with no pain. He’s a miracle worker. My scar is minimal and I’m back to regular movement. I can’t say enough about him, his compassion, his ... read more
Horrible bedside manners.
Came in with a basically shattered foot (broken 2nd, 3rd + 4th metatarsals in MULTIPLEE places) + lis franc injury. This man put my foot back into place (yes it was a long journey, surgeries + physical therapy), I am now back at nearly 100%! I am back to rock climbing at the same/higher lever than before, biking, hiking, beach runs, everything active! I just lay off super high impact sports due to some of the arthritis caused by the trauma. I'm SO THANKFUL for Dr. Ari Kaz + his amazing staff (shout out to my PT Paige) at IBJ... read more
Frequently interrupted me during our appointment. How does one provide a proper diagnosis using only X-ray scan without a patient's input? He said I'm okay and I insisted for a MRI. I've a long history of ankle issues(multiple surgeries) Anyway, report came in and stated I've talar dome lesion(this could potentially be an impairing disease greatly affecting my quality of life). I never got a call back from the doctor and I had to get a second opinion. This gave me the impression that the doc does not like to be proven wrong.... read more
Dr. Kaz exceeded all my expectations. I never had surgery before and did not know what to expect. He made feel comfortable and confident in my procedure. The outcome was fantastic. I am able to get back to normal without any side effects. I would highly recommend Dr. Kaz!
