Reported Concerns about initial expectations of healing of 2 months and then that it only had a 25% chance of healing early and now 35% and he tried to reason after the fact with actual difficulty He presented options of further bone filing as possibly to heal over exposed bone; also talked about larger risk of flap success based on ORN.

Laila was concerned about my condition and immediately started reaching out to have a procedure completed while I was in the office. She was successful in setting up a CT (which I ended up not doing) and a lymph node removal, which was completed before I left. |

|
10/01/2024 |
Laila is nice and it feels like she wants to help. I didn't feel the most cared for nor taken seriously about my medical concerns. |
|
09/14/2024 |
She was the one who kick started the urgency of my situation. She recognized the need for immediate intervention and took the steps necessary to have me see the doctor that same day vs. Scheduling for another day. This resulted in me getting surgery authorized and completed in 6 days. Thank you!! |

Excellent care as inpatient but limited care or concern as preop outpatient |
|
08/01/2024 |
She calmed me down and settled my fears and I walked out of the CAT scan yesterday feeling that this is a real big issue or something that warrants a biopsy right away but all if that's not the case, you all need to communicate with me ASAP as to what the situation is in your opinion! |
|

This pains me to say this but Laila Nurani Kutan, NP has been the only provider at Emory Winship Midtown that I am not pleased with. I feel she lacks empathy and has a condescending attitude during patient interaction. For example, she instructed me on how to care for my skin graft and then proceeded to question me at a subsequent visit as to why I followed that advice? I had some necrotic tissue that needed to be removed. Without any explanation, she simply picked up a pair of bandage scissors and began cutting into my wound. No local anesthetic was provided. I am in my fifth week of radiation and I have been driving myself to treatment. I happened to be 45 minutes late for an 8:45 appointment and she did not enter the exam room until nearly 11 a.m. Disheveled in her appearance asking why I was late! She operates under a veil of Inauthentic caring that is evident to me. Hopefully, I will not have to see her much longer. If I could request an alternate Nurse Practitioner, I would. |

Excellant! |
|
06/16/2024 |
She helped me with appt. With another Dr. Huge help !! |
|
06/15/2024 |
She did not mention anything about a PET scan so I was confused when we were given an appointment for one. |
|
05/25/2024 |
I just thought when I came in for my appointment, I would see my surgeon, but I got a PC instead. Felt my visit was rushed. |

Leilah is the best!! Very attentive to me and my needs |
|
04/30/2024 |
Again lots of wasted time as whole 3 weeks or actually 25 days was so I could see ENT doctor. |
|
04/30/2024 |
All concerns addressed patiently And professionally |
|
04/23/2024 |
The NP Laila Kutan yawned FIVE and MORE times during my 15 minute appointment. I tried to take it as my case was boring and simple which is great for me but I still think Ms. Kutan needs to work on her bedside manners. It is extremely rude to yawn while speaking to anyone leave alone your patient. |
|
04/17/2024 |
The doctor was very knowledgeable and how to proceed with my medical treatment. She showed a caring and concerned heart for what my feelings were at the time. |

Very informative |
|
02/03/2024 |
I was instructed to do exercises for trismus and explained the importance of doing them. I would have preferred getting exercise sheets that would show me how to do them properly instead of Googling the information. Luckily, one of my neighbors is a Physical Therapist - he came over and demonstrated how to do these exercises and added some that I did not see on Google. |

Ms. Katan seems very knowledgeable about the types of matters that come up in the lives of Head & Neck Cancer survivors as a result of the treatment (e.g. Radiation). Her ability to connect with other specialists is encouraging. |

I will and have recommended people to Emory and to the ENT group that I am currently in. Laila and Dr. KaKa have taken care of me for almost 4 yrs now and not only taken care of me during my cancer treatments and follow ups but has been very nice to my wife Jennifer because I feel like they understand that she has been going through all of this with me, so she is kinda like a patient too. |
|
