Patient Reviews
Nov 05, 2021
I Have Been Going To Him For 2 Years Now. I Had Congested Heart Failure And Had A Really Low Chance of Making It. He Has Turned Me Around And I Am Doing Great. I Feel I Am Back To 100%, And It's Because of His Help. He Does Not Have The Best Bedside Manner, But That's Something I Got Used To And It's No Longer An Issue. He Doesn't Beat Around The Bush or Sugarcoat Anything, That Is For Sure. But That Is What We Need Sometimes. He Has Done Wonders For Me And I Am Glad He Is My Doctor. Yes, I Would Recommend Him If You Want To Get Better, But Don't Expect Someone That Is Going To Shoot The Crap With You, He Is Not That Guy, And That Has Worked Out Great For Me. Thank You Dr. Kantola. :)
