Could see Dr Kalim cared about my progress, the only thing that I would like him to work on is talking too fast

He made me comfortable to ask him about anything
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 10/10/2023
Dr Kalim is superb. He's a fine listener, entirely knowledgeable, obviously trustworthy, and he exudes both authority and kindness. I was there for a lengthy and important consultation, and I had a lot of questions. Dr. K never gave me the sense that it was time for my questions to end. He addressed all my concerns and even came back when I had a question about my sons death, that was not actually part of his duties toward me. I don't need this surgery, but I'd recommend him to anyone who is interested in surgical alternatives for Gerd.
