Dr. Kakodkar was very professional, Very accurate in her diagnosis, she took her time and answered any and all questions that was asked. Gave me excellent advice. We as consumers/patients etc are so quick to complain when service isn't good, that we forget to commend the Professionals who do a truly outstanding job/service to the people who deserve it. I commend this Dr and recommend her to all my friends and family...Thanks for having this thread for feedback for others to read and compare their experiences
