I rarely write reviews but after seeing Dr. Kathawa, I cannot express enough how grateful I am for her exceptional care. I feel blessed to have found her after struggling with my weight for so long. Dr. Kathawa is not only highly knowledgeable and skilled but also incredibly kind, compassionate and attentive. She took the time to listen to my concerns, thoroughly explained my treatment options, and made me feel truly cared for throughout the entire process. Her dedication to patient well-being is evident in every interaction. It's obvious that she's highly invested in the success of her patients. I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Kathawa to anyone needing a caring and forward thinking doctor on their side. I would also like to thank the staff, always helpful and supportive. This whole office is amazing. If you're struggling with weight make a call to to this office. I'm sad it took me so long to get here.
