Dr. Kosmo spent a long time discussing my medical history and going over my labs. He was very thorough and listened carefully to my concerns. He also showed me how to review the labs myself. He proved to me that I was misdiagnosed. I couldn't help but hug him!

Dr Kosmo took a lot of time to listen to my problems and concerns. He was very good at explaining what my medical problem was to me in terms I could understand. I highly recommend Dr Kosmo. Only problem I did have was their office receiving and uploading my lad results. This happened on a couple of occasions.

Sometimes he is running late but he's a wonderful doctor and worth the wait.

Dr Kosmo is the best oncologist I think a patient could ever have! When I was in the hospital in 2002 for three months with stage 4 cancer and fighting because I didn't want to die nor did I want to have chemo, he always listened to me and came up with other options, even new, cutting edge options. He never stressed me out telling me I had to have chemo and I really liked that about him as most all of the other oncologist did stress me, very much so. He has a genuine smile and sincerely wants to help, he doesn't just hit you over the head with his agenda for you. He really listens and I love that in a doctor. Partly because of him I am still here today. God bless him!!!
