“The staff at Dr office was friendly and efficient. I felt welcome and comfortable. Dr Jacob Katz was incredibly patient with me. He listen carefully to my concerns and explained everything that I could understand. I really felt confident in his experience and care. And the phlebotomy technician was amazing. I don’t have a bruise on my arm, usually I do have it, ”

“Excellent, knowledgable and caring doctor. He spent as much time as I needed to answer all my questions I had about my pending ACL surgery (which I am having done with a different doctor as Dr. Katz does not perform ortho surgeries). I had all my questions answered and it was a friendly and comfortable experience. I was impressed. The wait time was longer than expected but I forgive that because of the positive experience with the doctor. Thank you.”
