“Dr. Kabaker was INCREDIBLE. I've been miserable with symptoms for years and my past 3 doctors only wanted to prescribe things to band-aid fix my symptoms instead of finding out the root cause. I'm used to no one believing me, and my problems have been ignored or downplayed by many doctors because I'm an overweight woman (double whammy in the medical world). But Dr. Kabaker and his staff took me very seriously, listened to my concerns without constantly interrupting me, and ordered some tests that I've been BEGGING other doctors to order for months. My only problem was with the office. They tried to cancel my appointment 15 minutes before, after I had driven an hour to get there. Luckily they still let me in, but it was very unprofessional to try and cancel so last minute.”

“Dr. Kabaker has great expertise in the field of endocrinology. Happy I was referred to see him. He communicated well, listened and quickly had answers for my questions.
