    I felt very well taken care of, Dr Kolb went through the entire history to find out how we got to where we are today and thoroughly listened and explained where we are what test we need and how we plan to proceed. I feel very confident in the plan we have going forward. I appreciate the time he took with us to listen and explain everything because this is a big condition to take in.

    Dr Kolb came into the appointment knowing my medical history, that in itself put him way ahead of most physicians. He was inquisitive, responsive and interested. It is difficult to impress me as a medical professional, Dr Kolb did. It means the world to a patient when a doctor behaves this way. Bravo, Dr Kolb!

    This was my first visit at the JH PE clinic, and I wish I'd gotten in as a patient over a year ago. Dr Kolb was hands down the most responsive and supportive doctor I've seen over the 16 months since my PE in Jun 2024. He actually sat with me, deeply listened, and asked a ton of questions. I felt heard for the first time.
