This is simply THE worst doctor I have ever seen! He lacked any sort of empathy and compassion. He was extremely condescending, rude, and very quick to diagnose. His critical thinking skills are comparable to that of a 5-year-old child. Dr. Katz can not make a differential diagnosis; he quickly jumps to conclusions and harms patients as a result of this. He missed an important health problem that I was dealing with. Stay away from this guy if you want to get a proper diagnosis and good medical care. You have options in Boston; see any other provider besides this arrogant man! Dr. Katz should definitely retire early and stop working with patients.

So pleased with the care given by Dr. Katz. Knowledgable and compassionate. Also a first rate staff.

you could not get better care, in every regard. this doctor is an excellent diagnostician, is kind and sensitive, and will take time to discuss your situation with you. you never feel hurried or patronized. he also, by the way, has a good sense of humor. i could not recommend a doctor more highly.
