Review for Dr. Thapar
Dr. Taylor has been one of the few physicians that I have encountered who takes time to listen, engage and to look at the big picture of her patients health. She has been a saving grace for our 2 year old who was diagnosed with asthma.

Review for Dr. Taylor
Dr Kitowski treated me for pleural effusion with a procedure called “thoracentesis”. He explained to me what all was involved in procedure, answered all my questions. The day of the procedure he explained everything he was doing and what I could expect, making sure I was comfortable at all times....

Missed my neck had multiple chronic fractures and other things on MRI. Other doctor elsewhere and PA caught it and could see it on same MRI. Seemed to spend more time trying to disprove my symptoms as if I was chasing pain pills and ambulances.
