Cleveland Clinic publicly discloses the names of companies when (i) its physicians/scientists receive $5,000 or more per year (or, in rare cases, equity or stock options) for speaking and consulting, (ii) its physicians/scientists serve as a fiduciary, (iii) its physicians/scientists receive or have the right to receive royalties or (iv) its physicians/ scientists hold any equity interest for the physician's/scientist's role as inventor, discoverer, developer, founder or consultant.* In publicly disclosing this information, Cleveland Clinic tries to provide information as accurately as possible about its physicians' and scientists' connections with industry.

If he has concerns he is very thorough in explaining the details. He listens and talks to me not my chart. That's huge. He comes in completely knowledgeable of all of your past history. It isn't forced or stumbly. He is genuine and empathetic. Never have I ever known another Dr. Like him. When sending me to specialists, he only suggests the best. Because of De. K's reccomendations I have the best team I could ask for. Thanks Dr. K!!!

Doctor seemed distracted as he spoke with me. He told me to make this appointment months ago for follow up. He really didn't ask me about specific things that he suggested I do on the last visit such as seeing the therapist and other things. I am assuming A GP knows what's been going on with me by reviewing my record before hand. I don't think he took the time to do that. Again, he seemed distracted and rushed.

Doctors wonderful but getting an appointment for him if your sick not so much. When I'm there for an appointment I make sure I make my next one. And the time it takes to get a message to him is way too long. Once you send a message it takes around 2 days to hear from someone that tells you they will send message to him.
