I have been a patient of Dr. Han for several years since being diagnosed as a CKD patient. He has been consistent with a high level of care and monitoring of my kidney performance, and reacting effectively when my numbers moved outside of healthy margins. While it is true he is not conversational by nature, he definitely provides the information you need to know and answers any questions clearly.

I really appreciate Dr. Han and his concerns about my overall health, not just my kidneys. He diligently goes over my lab results and makes suggestions to address any concerns that the lab work reveals. I feel he is very thorough and mindful of his paitents and their health.
