Dr. Karlin is an excellent physician and takes his time when diagnosing and offering a course of treatment. I have seen Dr. Karlin on occasion over the last 5 years and have really had the chance to know his staff. I cannot say enough about Dr. Karlin; he is a good doctor and a very good person.

Dr Karlin & the Group was referred to my by my pediatrician, as well as my Neurosurgeon @ Scottish Rite. My son had an accident, & fractured some skull bones directly related to his ear. Dr Karlin was diligent in our first visit with him to remove the blood in his ear. This was an extremely painful process for my son, & I found Dr, Karlin to be very patient & understanding to my 14 year old, when he acted like a 4 year old! He explained what had happened with the injury & the healing process for my son in a way that was easy to comprehend. I find the entire staff to be very gracious & efficient.
