I had been admitted into the hospital and this was a follow up visit and the dr was amazing and very concerned and always making sure I'm feeling well.

02/23/2026

Good

02/20/2026

The doctor was awesome explaining everything. Wonderful personality and funny individual.

02/06/2026

Everyone was great

01/30/2026

Professional and thorough. A Long four hour conference with multi disciplinary should be in a room better suited for comfort, not an exam room.

11/14/2025

All doctors were amazing. Their knowledge and expertise gained my confidence in what lies ahead. I felt like I was in great hands

06/13/2025

My radiologist was superb and I know exactly what she has planned. Thoracic not in.

05/16/2025

I have the Best team of Dr. I love Dr. Kersawala. She is amazing.
