Patient Reviews
Sep 24, 2021
After 2 visits to the ER, and being admitted each time, I was diagnosed with a very large stomach tumor/mass. The tumor had affected my health for quite some time. I am a 74 year old Female who is a diabetic, with high blood pressure. Needless to say, I was floored. I was weak, lethargic, and in considerable pain. I'm no doctor, but after seeing the pictures from inside my stomach, I knew I was in trouble! Finally, one of my doctors referred me to Dr. David Kooby. Dr. Kooby explained everything in detail. He told me what he would do, and what to expect. On July 20, 2021, Dr. Kooby performed an Esophagogastroduodenoscopy on me. I was released on July 25, 2021. I'm a different person today. I look forward to each day. Dr. Kooby saved my life! He took good care of me. He is a great doctor, but more importantly, he is a genuinely kind and considerate person. I highly recommend this doctor! Thank God for Dr. David Kooby!
