What Our Patients Say About Our Service

DAVE MCKEE1/05/2021

DR KANJI IS VERY ATTENTIVE AND MADE ME FEEL HE IS VERY INTERESTED IN HELPING ME WITH MY PROBLEM. HE ALWAYS TAKES ALL THE TIME I NEED AND NEVER MAKES ME FEEL HURRIED. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND DR KANJI FOR ANY ENDOCRINOLOGY RELATED ISSUES AND FOR SOUND MEDICAL ADVICE IN GENERAL.

Isis Mejias12/01/2020

I valued the consultation with Dr. Kanji very much. He was very professional from the start. First, the 15 minute initial online consultation allowed me to understand wether he was the Dr. I was looking for. Then, during the in-person consultation, Dr. Kanji was very personable and took the time to understand the reason why I was there and my concerns. He also spent quite a bit of time getting to know me. I appreciate this very much, as this is rare in doctors nowadays. Only with a personal consultation, you will be able to get personal treatment tailored to you, instead of a standard recipe. Would recommend Dr. Kanji to anyone.

Tara Cook11/11/2020

Excellent bedside manner. Did a complete history review of my son's Diagnosis and reached out personally to our previous Pediatric Endocrinologist. The appointment was very relaxed and comfortable. He took as much time with us as needed. We were scheduled in a manner that he or us were not rushed due to an overbooked schedule. You can tell he truly is here for his patients. Great direct pay price, no hidden fees. Tara
