I recently had an appointment with Dr. Kumar, and I can’t recommend him highly enough. From the moment I walked in, his professionalism was evident. He took the time to listen to my concerns, ensuring I felt heard and understood. Dr. Kumar’s caring approach made a significant difference in my experience. He explained everything thoroughly, making sure I was comfortable with my treatment plan. His attention to detail and genuine compassion put me at ease. If you’re looking for a physician who combines expertise with a heartfelt approach, Dr. Kumar is an excellent choice.

My dad went to him with stage 4 cancer. He said he could give my dad 1-2 years but instead he lived 1 week. Told my dad his enzymes or something were not good so he could only do a little chemo. He stopped talking after Chemo done in his office and died 4 days later. It took me 6 years to write this review since I am still devastated. He told me when he was dying we waited too long but we did not know he had cancer at all. What happened to 1-2 years?
