Patient Reviews
May 09, 2024
It is not an overstatement to say that Dr. Kalil probably saved my life. I was diagnosed with metasticized prostate cancer four months ago. Dr. Kalil immediately prescribed an extremely effective cocktail of oral medications, with mild chemotherapy layered in. IT WORKED!! My PSA count dropped precipitously, from over 6,000 to 2.6 in the latest reading. O.M.G.I also had prostate cancer-related blood clotting that went to my lungs at one point, sending me to the ER (prompting initial visit to Dr. Kalil), also completely eliminated through meds prescribed by Dr. Kalil. Throughout the process, behind the scenes, Dr. Kalil has coordinated all testing, insurance approvals, etc. with both service providers and Aetna, so that I never had to worry, or had any important medical test or medication refused or was overcharged. On an interpersonal level, Dr. Kalil exudes compassion, combined with a kind of European cool, without an accent, but most importantly, relentless competence.FANTASTIC!
