    Dr. Kanga is wonderful. He is very friendly, has a great bedside manner for small kids but also appreciates the concern parents can have when needing to bring their child to a specialist. He is very thorough and explains things well. I would recommend him to anyone!

    Dr Kanga started seeing my now 11yo daughter when she was 2 because of chronic Pneumonia. He did a bronchoscopy on her when she was 2. He has managed her so well, got us on the right path and for that I am thankful. She has been doing so well because of his care in the beginning that she had pneumonia recently and we hadn't dealt with it in about 4-5 years. He is our lifesaver.

    Dr Kanga and his nurse were amazingAt first I was upset about the time spent waiting to see the doctor but when I saw how attentive he was to my concerns and the time he took , I understood that he was giving the other patients the same care He was very thorough with this explanations, obtaining history information and discussing treatment. Highly recommend

    This doctor was extremely rude to my son. He kept talking about his ADHD behavior. They gave him a blow up toy to play with and the doctor told him he was going to take it away from him if he didn't stop. When my son left the room the doctor said okay now that it is quiet in here do you have any questions. Mind you my son was really behaving for having missed his ADHD medication that afternoon for this appointment. The doctor then told me to make sure my son had his ADHD medication before his next appointments. My son was not misbehaving. The only thing was we were there forever so of course as any 6 year old would, he kept saying he wanted to go home. I will never recommend that doctor to anyone and I will never see that doctor again for my sons care. If this doctor needs to see kids, he really needs to learn bedside manners.
