Patient Reviews
Jul 29, 2024
My visit with Dr. Kaskas was just what I needed from a kidney specialist! The receptionist was very nice and helpful, and the wait wasn't long. When I was called to the exam room, the friendly nurse was timely yet thorough and soon Dr. Kaskas came in with his warm smile and kind eyes to shake my hand. Already, he had made me comfortable. As he went over my tests and blood pressure readings, I was reminded that my PCP had told me that the Nephrologist is the blood pressure expert. During the years that Dr. Kaskas has treated me that has certainly be made clear to me! I appreciate so much his expertise, his knowledge and the 'on my level' way he shares with me the part of it that I want and need to know. If you are looking for an excellent physician with a great bed side manner, then I hope that you will make an appointment with this kind and intelligent provider of excellent care.
