Very good doctor. Good bedside manner. Very polite office staff. Very pushy about Zumba classes though, a bit strange.

Office was welcoming and very efficient. Dr. Ostrzenska was professional and listened to my medical need and addressed my concerns. I was pleased with my visit and will return for a full exam in three months.

made appt with zocdoc for 9:30am. In a lot of pain i was told to come to the phone in the kitchen. crawling to the phone i was merely told the appt had to be changed to 10:30. arriving early to fill-out paperwork @ 10:10 i was not seen by the doctor till an hour later. yes, i received the pain medicine and i am on the road to recovery but i was only in her exam room for 5 minutes while others who were there for weight management were laughing & sharing stories.

Dr. Ostrzenska was very thorough. Upon leaving her office, I felt I had made a good decision coming to her as a new patient. I look forward to my follow-up visit.

She was awesome! Very friendly and listens to what you have to say regarding health concerns. Offered me her zumba class that she teaches.
January 26, 2013Candice F.Verified patient
She was friendly and genuinely cared about my outcome. Instead of just giving me drugs to temporarily fix my problem (although she would have if necessary), she wanted to work with me to find a long-term solution. It might be more work, but it is healthier. She seems to really care like a doctor should. I wish more doctors were like her.

Very personable, knowlegable, and takes the time to actually assess what you need. She personally followed-up when there was an issue with the prescription.

This is a MD who truly cares about her patients. She did not rush me and did an excellent job of educating me about my health issues. I would highly recommend her to my family and friends. Her office staff was also very pleasant and helpful.

I scheduled an appointment with Dr. Kasia due to my weight. She was very understanding and shared with me her own personal experience and success with weight loss. I had many questions and she went above and beyond to answer them.

She takes the time to listen and evaluate symptoms. I like that she is concerned with improving your overall health, encouraging positive life style changes, and not just treating a symptom.
