Dr. K…

I have to say that I was privileged to work with him at Montfort. I am now retired but keep such great memories from this very loving and kind person/doctor. He is genuine, honest and has the patient’s best at heart. I love listening to his podcasts! Him and his team are well researched ! I like the variety of the subjects as well! Good job Dr. K!!
