Patient Reviews
Mar 02, 2024
I have had nothing but a great experience with Dr. Kara. He listens very well when I tell him what I need and responds appropriately. He works with me as a team and lets me try things that I think will work., and if it doesn’t, he gives me his best recommendations. He has a very easy-going and friendly manner, and I actually enjoyed my visits with him.
