I've been a patient of Dr. Christine Kakoulas since the 90s and could not recommend her more highly. I find her caring, thorough and thoughtful. She has, quite literally, saved my life (more than once).

Christine is thorough and efficient. We spent a great deal of time together and discussed wellness options in addition to completing a full physical exam. She spent a great deal of time and not only listened but suggested options that suited my lifestyle.

I would thoroughly recommend Dr Kakoulas. As a cancer survivor I've seen hundreds of doctors and different medical practices. Dr K is caring, she listens, offers advice and always follows up. In emergencies, I've been seen immediately and she's always returned my calls. I feel very comfortable with her and believe that she truly cares about her patients.

I have seen Dr. Kakoulas twice now as my new internist and she is great. I like someone who will give me the facts straight without a lot of extra "fluff". Not to mention she is young and has her finger on the pulse of modern medicine. I trust her and recommend her without reservation. The office/practice is busy but organized. They work with lots of insurance plans which is great too!

Best doctor I ever had! She's incredibly smart and friendly and really cares about her patients. I moved to Pennsylvania recently and still travel to NYC just to see her. Would highly recommend her!
