The only thing I thought was odd is that the person who brought me into the office didn't weigh me; she used the weight that I had written on my forms, & I thought that was peculiar. Also, she didn't take my pulse, & most office assistants/helpers usually do that.

Going to a cardiologist is a very daunting and scary thing. Dr. K and team make the process comfortable and straightforward.

Top notch

10/28/2022

Dr Kagaoan is equal measures brilliant, attentive, concerned, and analytic....traits that very few doctors are fortunate enough to possess. I could not be more appreciative of her skills and pre-eminent competence. Because she is so well-regarded, she has many other patients, which makes getting in to see her difficult, but need was routine not urgent. My strong suspicion is that, if circumstances warrant, she will make herself available. Trinity Health Care is fortunate to have this gifted practitioner affiliated with it.
