Report
Dr Rekant was offensive and rude to my wife when she did not want to follow his first recommendation. He has a supercilious air and was offensive to her when she asked about other choices. Richard Kresloff MD

Dr. Rekant & the staff at Philadelphia Hand to Shoulder and at Wills Surgery Center of Cherry Hill we're all extremely pleasant and professional in handling my injury. I was able to go see him for a diagnosis and schedule my procedure the following day. It was a pleasure being under his care and I recommend Dr. Rekant and the staff of each locations for any hand to shoulder issues you may have! Thanks again

I was experiencing radiating pain in my wrist that arced around and traveled between my index and middle finger had me afraid. It left me powerless and at risk of hurting myself or others due to weakness with baring weight. There is nothing worse to me than not knowing. My fears were alleviated when Dr. Strohl provided care I was given a diagnosis iand explanation be him and his attendee that explained everything I needed to do and why I was experienced what I experienced. I was attended with care and professionalism. I will continue to trust the center and Dr Strohl with my care.
