Dr Kwak is a god! When I first visited him, a wonderful nurse, assured me that he would reverse my health and put me on track. I half believed her bc the situation seemed hopeless. In less than 4 months of carefully monitoring and tracking my sugars, making adjustments to medications etc, Dr Kwak was successful in doing a complete 180 on me!!I'm in awe and very grateful!

I am very impressed with Dr. Kwak's professionalism and ability to pinpoint an issue that I'd been experiencing for years in just one visit, while other physicians outside of this practice were unable to properly diagnose me. He listened intently, was patient, empathetic, and extremely thorough. Dr. Kwak took time to explain all of my treatment options and responded quickly when I had a follow up question after my visit. He is outstanding and I've already recommended him to a friend.
