I've been seeing Dr. Isakow for quite a few years. The thing I like most about him is he always walks in the exam room, whatever time my appointment is, and I so appreciate that because so many doctors will have you waiting in the exam room for quite a while. He's very pleasant and I think he's concerned with his patients. So I will continue to see him and I hope he never retires. Thank you.
