Dr Karaman is absolutely amazing
Awesome care. Double checking results of tests.
Had to wait to log lang to see the Doctor
Very nice and friendly.
I like Dr. Karaman but he was late getting the to the examination room. Normally I except that at most Doctors offices, however the room I was waiting in is close to the area where he does his notes. There are several nurses and med techs there and he would do his notes and then stand there and talk about restaurants and chickens and baby chicks among other things between patients. I had 2 people ahead of me so I heard these conversations and had to wait while this was going on on. I was there just to have a short conversation about my treatment plan.
Dr Karaman listen to all of my concerns. Very professional and explained all of his concerns.
Super nice ! Listens, very caring
Very personable
Great doctor who cares for his patients. He fixed my wife right. Gave us the results of tests in a manner we understood.
