Dec 29, 2020
Starting with the friendly, yet professional staff, your entry until your exit following your appointment, you will find continuity. Dr. Kumar has managed to recruit, employ and retain a staff, who reflects his warm caring, compassionate and professional experience for his patients. You will feel and know that you are receiving the best possible care. Dr. Kumar went above and beyond by Appealing my health insurance company’s Denied Procedure for me. He won an Approval of the procedure for me. And, I really appreciate Dr. Kumar’s extra effort on my behalf. I know that he would do as much for you also. I do highly recommend Dr. Kumar and Carolina Retina Institute.
