Dr. Kump's Reviews

Dr. Kump was professional and kind. He ordered X-rays which he reviewed with me carefully. He ordered MRIs of neck and lumbar and referred me a hand specialist who helped me resolve a triggered finger on my right hand. During the second visit, Dr. Kump thoroughly reviewed the MRIs, answered all my questions and referred me to PT. If the problem recurred, he would set up a new course of action.

Dr.Kump is amazing and with his help I feel I have my life back. He performed a L5- S1 Micro-dissection on me and immediately after surgery I felt so much better. I have had no pain since the operation and healing was good and quick. The scar is barely even noticeable. I would recommend Dr.Kump and his entire team to anyone in Colorado. Nothing but amazing things to say!

Dr Kump was very knowledgeable. I really appreciated his honesty, humbleness and how thorough he was. He is unable to do my extensive surgery so he referred me to another surgeon, which I really appreciated.

The outcome from Dr. Kump's surgery on my spine was EXCELLENT! I so appreciate his attention to my needs from the initial interview, through the hospital stay, and now the follow up visits. He and his staff demonstrated professionalism and concern for my wellbeing.

Absolutely awesome experience. Fantastic bedside manner. One feels that he is invested in taking his time in order to fully HEAR and comprehend your discomfort. He explained different approaches, used not only used at UCLA , but in Japan as well. Thus insuring me that he was up on the very latest treatments stateside and aboard. His “care team” was equally attentive to making sure my PT etc. appointments were sent in prior to my leaving the building.I come from a medical family background so I have a very high bar for standards.
