Patient Reviews
Feb 05, 2017
I was referred to a hospital in south jersey when my daughter was born who then referred me to Dr Katowitz at CHOP. This was a very difficult time and shocking thing to us. Dr. Katowitz was very informative and made sure he explained all the terms and possibilities. He was direct but very compassionate. He made sure she received all the testing and involved reviews and opinions from other doctors. He really made us feel that he was with us every ateo of the way. Always listened to our concerns.
