How likely are you to recommend Dr. Kahler?
I am a 43-year-old male. I have been lucky enough to be under Dr. Kahler’s care for 16 years. I have suffered from Asthma, mental illness/ Substance use disorder and have been wheelchair-bound since 2020. Dr. Kahler has a balance of experience, quality of care, and compassion that cannot be denied.Dr. Kahler listens carefully and her medical approach is well thought through and is still able to personalize her care with the patient’s individuality and unique needs at the forefront.No ego or smug attitude will interfere with Dr. Kahlers careful decision-making. I feel she genuinely cares about the well-being of all her patients. Unlike many other physicians who treat you like a faceless “number” and will distance themselves from every patient, I feel her care doesn’t stop when she hangs up her coat at the end of the day. Her sincerity makes me WANT to be healthier and a better patient as a sign of gratitude and respect for her unique and unrivaled medical care.
