In my short experience with Dr Kopita, he has shown genuine interest in my health concern. He has listened and not ignored my concerns. He explained past tests I had from a previous doctor whom after 3 months I still had not met. He is also quite personable and not just clinical. I feel quite confident that he will provide the best treatment when all is said and done.
