Dr. Kosmorsky has a great reputation, so maybe he was just having an off day. He jumped to a conclusion on my condition and didn't seem to want to discuss it at all. "Go see this other guy" was about the extent of it.

This was the worse experience I have ever had with a doctor. I am so discourage. He acted like he was to busy to give a care on what was going on with me. I wouldn't recommend him to anyone!! I am seeking another opinion from another hospital due to his disrespect of my concerns and my family physician concerns!! This guy shouldn't even have a license to practice!! I've never been so frustrated and disappointed after leaving an appointment with someone who calls themselves a professional!!

After seeing other doctors I was referred to Dr. Kosmorsky. I had been having migraines since July 1998 and I needed help desperately. The doctor ordered tests for me and then diagnosed the problem. He treated me there and it was like a cover of darkness was lifted and the headache receded. it does return but I can have the treatment and then zi'm good for a couple of months.

Dr Kosmorsky did not offer any time or suggest discussion of implications of his diagnostic conclusions, treatment options, and did not offer appropriate next steps. granted, I did not ask, but thought that would be a natural result of such a conclusion.

I will never come back to this doctor again. the visit started out well until he came in. He asked me how I was doing. before I could answer he said " that's good'. he clearly doesn't have a desire to listen to his patients, let alone treat them with respect.

Dr. did not tell me what he saw on the abnormal OCT. He just told me to see a retinologist. I would have liked to know what he did not see as serious, and also what the reasons were that he recommended a consult with a retinologist. All he told me was that there was no neuro problem.

Dr. Gregory S Kosmorsky, DO, has been the only true long-term physician that I have been under the care of with the Cleveland Clinic. As a young Dr. around 1989 he has overseen my vision and subsequent issues from 1989 to present day. My primary care oversight has shifted over the years like the wind. Thank you for doctors like Dr. "Koz" who develop a long-term relationship in not only caring for, but understanding and balancing the patients wants and needs.

Dr. was abrupt, dismissive and not willing to talk about referral or complicated medical history as it may relate to current symptoms. Husband and I will never return and will caution friends to not see him ever. Office staff was good though and we were pleased to get in relatively quickly from the time the retinal specialist referred me.

Dr Kosmorsky is always thorough with explaining what was done, what the results were and what actions would be needed going forward. He always reminds me to alert the proper caregiver if new or worsening signs/symptoms occur. There is always a follow up call with results from other diagnostics.
