I have been coming to him for over 20 years. I don’t want to go anywhere else. He shows that he cares that your medical issues may be real not just in my head as many male doctors say. I admire and trust him with my physical issues 100 percent.

He has been my primary doctor for over 20 years and I have reason to leave him. He is very informative and will look up what he is not familiar with. He is a truly hands on doctor take time with you doctor I feel as if I am his only concern even I am in his office. Yes I would recommend him to anyone who ask for a excellent internist.

I have been a patient at this practice for 2 years. Dr. Kabatsi feels like a friend of the family. He is thoughtful, takes my questions regarding our family's health seriously (read: does not write me off as a hypochondriac), and is willing to fill out any forms and do any tests that I need him to do. He takes TIME with each patient, and is a good listerner. He has changed receptionists, so it is possible that the poor reviews his receptionists have received in the past may no longer be relevant. This practice has a very old fashioned, small town family doctor feel...this is something I never thought I'd find in the city. I have had the occasional delay in receiving a test result, but have not found this to be different from my experiences at other larger practices.

Doesn't follow up in emergencies, office staff is unhelpful, he shows no signs of concern for his patients.
