What a kind and professional dr would highly recommend
he is not allowed to retire! Surgeons like him are rare these days! It’s fun mistakenly clear but not only does he know exactly what he’s doing with confidence – did “bedside manner” is both friendly and clear. You are able to ask questions and he makes it make sense to you. he’s definitely earned his. Retirement though is clear no one wants to see him go – it will be a great loss in his field.
Dr. Katolik was friendly and informative.
