Patient Reviews
Apr 29, 2016
My husband and I have been seeing Dr. Kumar for about 10 years. In treating me, she has always been knowledgeable and thorough. She and her office staff have been unfailingly kind, helpful and respectful. My husband was diagnosed with an uncommon serious neurological disease about 3 years ago, thanks to the acumen of Dr. Kumar. There are not words enough to say how grateful I am to her for the care she has given him. She is a real find, and I have recommended her to family and friends.
