Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

My top-notch doctor!
In my new in-network search for a PCP, I was pleased to have found Evan Kalina, M.D. So far, I've had one in-office doctor's appointment with him where he encouraged me to share my life's situation and concerns. He also mentioned that his preference for communicating is texting. Wow - I left feeling that Dr. Kalina sincerely cared while answering all of my questions. What sets him apart from most doctors is that his passion is to focus on the whole patient holistically, which includes a healthy lifestyle. He also facilitates Wednesday night meetings at no cost for his patients, their guests, and fellow holistic guest speakers for open discussion on various health topics. I highly recommend Dr. Kalina to anyone seeking exceptional care with compassion and empathy. He is tops!

This review is pretty delayed, but I recently had to change insurance and was looking for in-network provider and found Dr Kalina. I saw him once in June of 2022 right before I was going on a trip. I'd been having a lot of issues with my leg and no one seemed to know what was going on and I was looking for a quick fix so I could enjoy my vacation. Dr Kalina was kind, thoughtful, funny, and empathic. Although without an MRI which I got a few months later, there wasn't any way to know what was actually going on with my leg, but in hindsight, he was the ONLY one who thought it was related to what was later discovered, it was my back, my spine specifically. Spinal Stenosis. But what I really appreciated and haven't forgotten was he asked me to reach out to him and let him know how I was doing. And when I did, he responded. As another reviewer said, it is so nice to know that there are doctor's out there that still care and take their time. Thanks Doc!

About Me

care philosophy

I enjoy taking the time to care for people and listen to their stories, whether individually or in a group. I came to realize that health and healing evolve out of human connection and is essential in healing. Being in a solo practice, I can take the time I need to help people heal from the inside out.
