Very kind, honest and took a lot of time reviewing my previous scans. Answered all of my questions and was as gentle as possible during my exam. Dr was willing to explain the issues to me and my husband and answered all my questions regarding the testing that is needed. Very knowledgeable and not willing to jump to conclusions.

My impression of Dr. Kolavo is that he is competent and trustworthy. I would be confident to have him treat my lumbar spine problem. But to diagnose and treat other related issues that may be be part of a larger problem, not so much.
