I recently had my first visit and experience with this practice in late September 2022. I've gone to see a lot of gastro doctors for my U.C. over the past four years, and i was never happy with any of them. I went to this office because it was suggested by a relative, and I'm thankful I did. I visited with Dr. Kulkarni in late September 2022. I was blown away first that I was able to meet with an actual doctor, and not a physicians assistant. Secondly, I was very impressed with how much time Dr. Kulkarni spent with me on my very first visit to his office. He did not seem rushed at all, and it was clear he wanted to hear everything I had to tell him about my condition, and he took the time to explain all of my options. The key takeaway from that meeting was, he said, "We're going to get you better." and "We're going to work as a team if I'm your doctor." I was almost speechless. Fast forward to October 19th 2022, when I had my scheduled colonoscopy. I couldn't be more pleased with ALL the nurses, staff, and of course Dr. Kulkarni. This was not my first colonoscopy, and this experience was by far the best I've ever had. I will never go to another gastro doctor or practice again. I love all of these folks!

The staff was friendly and Dr. Kukler was amazing, and attentive. He took time to answer all of my concerns.
