- "The first time you see a specialist, you often have no prior experience or knowledge about the diagnosis they give you. We, as patients, must live day-to-day with the diagnosis, so educating the patient about the condition, treatment options and management is very important. Dr. Kushlaf excelled with explaining my diagnosis, testing options (if needed), treatment options and the basis of his recommended course of action and treatment. An educated patient can participate in making health care decisions, confident they are making the best decisions they can based on the information they have received. The Physician is more than a "Doctor". The Doctor becomes an educator. As an educator, they set the stage for good communication and teamwork with the patient. Dr. Kushlaf excelled in educating. I am glad I saw Dr. Kushlaf. I know he was the right Doctor for me."
