Patient Reviews
Jan 01, 2022
I have been using Dr Kumar since 2015 and have to say she is amazing... very smart and on top of her game in every way... she has helped me in more ways than I thought was possible. Her staff are great and Francis is also amazing..I can't thank you enough !! Scheduling an appointment is easy and the wait time always reasonable. My old Dr wait time was up to 2 hours which to me is an insult and then he never did anything to help me... so happy to be treated by a real professional. Thank you Dr. Kumar from the bottom of my heart.
