Patient Reviews
Feb 18, 2024
As a patient of Dr. Kaw’s from when she took over Levy’s practice, I have been very pleased. She is truly a professional and her staff provides her with great support. The staff is responsive and accommodating for emergency appointments when they are needed. I would not hesitate to recommend Dr. Kaw to anyone, and I have referred many patients to her.
