Dr Kakani is a gifted physician. His knowledge, expertise and beside manner together are trememdous. I wish all physicians had his calling and stood by their hypocratic oath as he does. He saved me from surgery believing in me and my request for choice of antibiotic and length of therapy repeating CT scans until I was healed. He has always been there for me no matter what ails my ears, nose, throat or thyroid disease. I was very blessed when my Endocrinologist, Dr Sanjay Sahay, his colleague, sent me to him when I needed medical help and advise.
