The guy is an arrogant doctor with no beside manner at all . He treats his staff poorly, and he only cares about getting money.

Dr. Kumar does not take pictures during endoscopy. What is the point of the exam then? He told me to take medicines I did not need for over two years. The medicine made me much sicker. I feel like he made up the diagnosis of hiatal hernia because many years and 4 endoscopy's later it has never showed up again on an EGD. When I was sick his office told me he only takes phone calls after 5pm on certain days. I went to the ER when I could have just talked to the doctor on the phone. When he took care of my loved one he did not bother to look at me or acknowledge that I was standing there.
