Patient Reviews
May 05, 2018
Dr. Kost was the hospitalist on duty for the majority of the time my Mother was hospitalized at South Suburban Advocate in Hazel Crest, IL. Dr. Kost was very informative, compassionate, willing to listen to all ideas and very helpful. My Mother was in a great deal of pain while she was there (compression fracture and fractured sacrum), and he did all he could to help keep her comfortable while she awaited surgery. I have nothing but praise and thanks for Dr. Kost.
