CANN MICHAEL S MD

I have had one appointment with Dr Cann so far, and I find him to be extremely likeable. His education and experience are what brought me in. I read all about him, and his qualifications were impressive. He is professional, and answered all of my questions without ever giving me a feeling that I was taking up too much of his time, as many doctors do. He was able to build a repore with me on the first visit. Like the other reviewer said, he has a «good vibe». I also enjoyed his radiology person named Jeff. Great guy.

This story goes back a long way but, in order to ensure a balanced view of this doctor, I have to tell you that when I saw him for a minor but excruciatingly painful accident years ago, he was really nice, he calmed me right down, and he had a good vibe. This was before he went over to Verdugo. But here’s what made him special: he and his office obviously cared. Here I was, calling every orthopedic surgeon I could within a 20-​mile radius for an emergency visit and NOT ONE OF THEM would see me or even return the call. Dr. Cann’s office was the only one that seemed to care at all. They said, «Well, he really has no time available at all, his schedule is completely full, but come in anyway and somehow we’ll fit you in.» And he did. Only one doctor out of dozens I called. When I was in trouble, he came through. That says a lot.

My mom had 2 knee replacements by this guy and had no complications… But he wants a follow up visit almost every 6 months for what seems like no good reason! Im a therapist and my patients dont do follow up visits with their orthopods this much! On top of that, he put my mom in collections for $ 33 !!! What!!! Really!!! I can pay double that if they would have called me or at least waited till my mom’s next appt to collect! Ridiculous!
