“This was my first appt with Dr. Kaplan. Although I had been to this office before, for several appts almost 3 years ago, that doctor has since retired. I liked Dr. Kaplan right away: he had a warm manner and I was impressed when it had become clear he had read up on labs, prescriptions and radiology reports in my file--surprisingly, I've noticed not all doctors take the time before the appt. I do have to note that he advised me that he was an "in patient" doctor, which I took to mean if I had an emergency that put me in the hospital, he would not be the follow-up doctor. (I could be wrong, as I didn't ask him at the time to clarify his role. I though his treatment advised was in line with what I was expecting at that time, especially since he knew I was having a CT scan the next week and would be interested in the results. He then had me schedule a follow-up appt for the week after. I definitely would recommend him, based on a first appt, but do note the "in patient" status.”
