    I cannot say enough wonderful things about Dr. Kadish! From the moment I stepped into his office, I felt truly heard and understood. He took the time to answer all of my questions thoroughly, never making me feel rushed or like just another appointment in the day. It genuinely feels like there are no time restraints when you're with him'he gives you his full attention and makes sure every concern is addressed. What stands out most is how deeply invested he is in my well-being and quality of life. It's clear that he genuinely cares, and that kind of compassion in a doctor is rare and incredibly reassuring.
