Dr. Kayak was excellent, she showed concerns for my issue and provided me with a recommendation that had not been suggested by other providers regarding my health and I have suffered with back and spine issues for over 25 years. Dr. Nayak took the time to try to evaluate the possible ROOT causes of my current pain and discomfort. I appreciate Dr. Nayak's approach and concerns with suggestions/referral to see a Specialist to address my medical issues.

Dr. Nayak was running very late, but apologized repeatedly and then spent all the time I needed to understand my diagnosis, treatment & next step.
