Amazing. Best doctors appointment I’ve ever had, and I normally hate going to the doctors office. He listens to everything. Very communicative and extremely charismatic. Not pushy but thorough.
Verified patient
Dr Kushner: Very respectable and professional. He pays attention to what you are relating about your medical condition and then he solves it or gives necessary referrals with clear instructions. Remembers your family medical history.. He is the physician that has great bedside manner not academic. I’m soooo glad he is my physician.
