My experience with Dr. Lara was very good. She is patient, listen to what you have to say . You can ask any question . She is very smart, friendly and is a good listener. She solves your problems.
Very helpful dealing with my sister who has dementia. Cutting her nails was quite difficult but Dr. Kosinski remained calm and spoke softly and encouraging throughout the procedure. Thank you Dr. Kozin

Very interested in my well-being. Direct, on-target. Pleasant to deal with.
Kind and empathetic dr. She takes the time to listen to your problem/progress each visit. She spends time with you each visit, it is not one of those Drs where you deal with the assistant and then 30 seconds with the Dr.
