Dr. Christopher Kepler, MD

My doctor's professional approach.

Dr. Kepler and his entire team are amazing. He took time and attention to discuss what was going on with my medical situation and answered all my questions. I feel very confident that I will get the very best care and treatment from Dr. Kepler. He was the first doctor after seeing many doctors to suggest a different medical treatment and it worked. I highly recommend Dr. Kepler.

I was about as fearful and skeptical as you can get. Dr. Kepler took care of me from the very beginning, was straight up with me, had good eye contact with me, and kept me informed the whole way. I had a laminectomy/fusion and I was scared to death. I took my time meeting different surgeons and knew Dr. Kepler was for me. He told me exactly what I needed and educated me on exactly what to expect. Highly recommend him, he literally gave me my physical activity back. My symptoms were so bad that I couldn't walk my dog around the block without getting numb legs. Now, I can walk 50 miles if I want to. His staff was very patient with me each time I called. I cannot thank Dr. Kepler enough.

Dr Keplar was the first doctor to truly understand my back issues & give me a course of action to hopefully get more mobile than I am now. Was very caring & courteous. I came to my appt from 2 hours away & I’m so glad I did. Would definitely recommend Dr Keplar to others.

Dr Kepler was an all around great doctor and his staff was great too! They care listen and he fixed my neck and back so that it healed the right way instead of how they both were from the previous two doctors that did my previous surgery on neck and back! Thank u Dr Kepler

When I went to see Dr. Kepler, I was in extreme pain. Dr. Kepler reviewed my MRI etc. and said he could help me, I was in his office on a Tuesday, on Wednesday his office arranged for me to get Blood work and a EKG. On Friday he was able to do my surgery, at Jefferson's Hospital in Philly. On Saturday I went home pain free, able to walk and live my life again.I can't thank you enough, Dr.Kepler.

No pain, able to walk normally. Great Doctor. Thank you

Dr Christopher Kepler, as I know of now did and amazing Job on my disk replacement and fusion , I feel almost normal in two months, I also thank his amazing staff Dr Alexis Drennen who was the best ever, help me prepare and gave me the exercise I needed before and after that made a word of difference. Can't get better then them Two.

Having experienced a completely successful, important, and technically very complex surgery by Dr. Kepler, I cannot imagine more professional and complete care. Thorough, personable, and patient-focused beginning to end.

Dr.Kepler did surgery on my back and I I have to say how much better I feel. My pain is gone and I feel great now. I had disc surgery and all I can say is he is wonderful and his personality is great. He makes you feel very comfortable and in good hands.

A few days after surgery, a brilliant resident detected a rare complication. I was in the OR within a few hours. The complication was eliminated. Before the procedure, Dr Kepler explained the situation and put me at ease.

From my initial call to schedule an appointment Nicole & Alexis have been extremely helpful. I chose Rothman as a second opinion for an epidural injection. I was lucky enough to get scheduled with Dr. Kepler, who immediately made me feel very comfortable. He was very thorough & honest about my pain & options for DJD & a bulging disc that has no spacing & is pressing on my nerve. (I feel like the game “operation”, jolts from my back to my toes if I touch the floor wrong or Breathe too heavy). 1st plan was the epidural injection; which gave very minimal relief, once the numbing agent wore off a couple days later. So at today’s follow up appt, we scheduled me for a discectomy next week (Yes, FAST) Dr Kepler was very clear with the surgery plan, recovery & risks. Showed me my scans, what’s causing my pain & how it’ll be relieved. So, I’m definitely expecting to be back here for another review soon, saying NO MORE PAIN!! And I can walk, stand, sit, drive (and quit the crying, honestly). Ugh

Dr. Kepler is kind, smart doctor who is going to help me. I am comfortable with him and trust his knowledge enough to let him do surgery on me.

Dr. Kepler said he could get me out of pain and he did. Him and his assistant Alexis did an amazing job on my back. I would highly recommend him if you're having back issues.

Successful with a challenging procedure

I was debilitated and in a lot of pain for over 2yrs, Dr. Kepler was professional & took the time to explain what was needed to get me better. I was in the operating room 2weeks later. It's been a year post surgery and I feel so much better. I highly recommend Dr. Kepler

Perfect. I wanted to see Dr Kepler because he operated on my daughter’s back several years ago and we realized then that he was a great surgeon with a great personality. My visit with him recently was just as helpful. He gave me options for my back problem which is exactly what i wanted.

I had a lumbar spinal fusion with Dr. Kepler in 2021. Dr. Kepler is a superb surgeon with outstanding diagnostic skills and knowledge. He explains conditions well and combines all with patience and compassion. I am rating Dr. Kepler as an all-around 5 star surgeon. Dr. Kepler works with a 5 star team, consisting of two R.N's - Alexis Drennan and Nicole Quail. Alexis is a great surgical nurse who assists Dr. Kepler in the operating room and also helps with post-op treatment. Nicole Quail has been my "go-to" person since my first pre-op telephone call to the office. She dispenses medications and advice as needed and has helped me with post-op problems. She is always responsive and kind. I consider Dr. Kepler and this team to be without equal. Barbara M.

Dr Kepler is a very confident, caring and devoted surgeon. He explains everything in detail and answers all questions. I always recommend him to others having back issues.

Very pleasant to work with. Listens and actually cares!
