“I am thrilled to write a review for Dr. Kumar who saw my 15-year-old daughter. It was our very first visit and it was evident that Dr. Kumar possesses a rare combination of qualities that make him an outstanding physician. His bedside manner is truly exemplary. Dr. Kumar’s ability to connect with a teenage patient is remarkable, making her feel comfortable discussing her health concerns openly. He took his time to listen attentively. This level of genuine care and empathy is reassuring as a parent, knowing that my daughter is in good hands. In terms of medical knowledge, he has a remarkable ability to explain complex medical concepts in a manner that is understandable to my daughter. This has empowered us with the knowledge needed to make informed decisions about her healthcare. Dr. Kumar goes above and beyond to stay up-to-date with the latest advancements in medicine, ensuring that my daughter receives the best possible care.”

“Dr. Kumar is the best pediatrician! He’s very thorough with his examination. I never feel rushed out of the office. Dr Kumar really takes his time to answer and explain any questions I have. The nurses and staff are all always so sweet and pleasant with my daughter as well. She’s 3 now and has absolutely no fear for appointments. In fact, she’s excited to go. I won’t take her anywhere else.”

Dr. Kumar takes his time during his annual well-visits with my son and genuinely seems interested in my son’s overall progress and development- physically, emotionally, socially, academically, personally, etc.
Dr. Kumar is very comprehensive with the topics he covers, and allows for questions from my son and myself. He thoroughly and thoughtfully asks great questions, in an engaging, teen-friendly and caring manner. Dr. Kumar is very informative, he explains issues in a way that is easy to understand, and he encourages discussion. I highly recommend Dr. Kumar, especially for adolescents.
