Dr. Kavy demonstrates his expertise, experience and knowledge in a friendly approachable, manner. On first meeting the direction my case was going was clearly explained, and I came away knowing he values his patients. He's able to inform and add a little levity at the same time. I love his communication style! He listened and answered my questions, as well as gave great word pictures and perspective. I came to my initial appt still somewhat reeling from the cancer diagnosis but left assured I was in good hands. On the post-surgery video visit I was again given great info, helpful word pictures, a little levity always appropriate to the moment. I have to also mention he shared that to date all the pathology had come back clean!!! He affirmed my comment that many, many people had been praying, whether he shares my Christian faith or not he did not hesitate to affirm the value of prayer. All this to say I have great respect for him.
