I've had a very negative experience with Dr Cann. I went to him almost a year ago for surgery to repair a ruptured ligament in my foot, and a couple tears, and I gave him MRI results from the VA. He basically treated me as a walk in that didn't have a major injury, and put me on physical therapy, and when that obviously didn't repair the ruptured ligament, he kept putting it off and having me see other specialist to make sure I didn't have some kind of nerve issues, which isn't why I went to see him. Then his last appointment he said he wants to take out a subdular implant from my ankle to see if that helps... Lol... Seriously wouldn't recommend this guy to anyone.
Reviewed on Aug 9, 2021
As described all throughout this survey, I came to the doctor with actual results from an MRI that had great pictures. I gave the doctor the paperwork that had the injuries listed in it, and I was treated as if that never existed, and I just sprained my foot. The VA wants to do multiple things for surgery, and I'm trying to avoid having bones fused. I think this doctor just didn't want to do the surgery I need/ needed, and was milking my insurance company for money for months while not actually treating me or helping me in any meaningful way.

Dr. Cann was unable to address my specific issue due to my diabetes being out of control; however, he took a STRONG, eye contact with me as to why he could not take me for exploratory surgery and my main focus should be diabetes control. I needed his direct approach. he made me feel like he truly cared. Thank you Dr. Cann and I've taken your advice seriously.
