Dr kohout and Donna are amazing but trying to get to them when your having a medical neuro problem is a nightmare

We came away from our appointment with a renewed sense of understanding of my condition and treatment options. Dr Kohout explained everything to our level of understanding. We appreciated the time he spent with us. We didn't feel like he was trying to get us out the door so he could move on to the next patient. He listened, explained, and reassured. We left his office with a huge weight lifted from our shoulders.

I was told by the VA that I had Parkinson’s disease so I made an appointment with Dr. Kahoot and he said I see no evidence that you have Parkinson’s. I guess it’s wait-and-see.
