I have been a patient of Dr. David Kayne for over 10 years. I am so grateful to have found this wonderful practice in Encino of both primary care doctors and endocrinologists. His passion, knowledge, and most of all, personal care and follow up is impeccable and a rare form these days of HMO's and express type care facilities(factories, almost!) I spent over 2 hours at his office today with a thorough checkup , preparing me for upcoming travel, replete with blood work evaluation and a blood sugar draw that instantly tells you your glucose level and A1C! As I've had a chronic cough, he had me take a chest X-ray (right there in the office space) and prescribed a Z-pac to ensure my optimal health and vitality. I will also get a pneumonia vaccine on next visit. All staff, from front receptionist to nurse , phlebotomist and checkout desk are stellar in treating the patient with complete respect, almost like the ideal Martin Buber I-Thou relationship! Years back , I was fortunate to be one of the first patients in a clinical trial ,taking an injectable non insulin, highly endorsed by Dr. Kayne. I also was advised by two top notch certified diabetes educators, who set me on the path of healthy living, with diet and exercise. If you wish to have the best medical care, with a doctor who cares, attends to, and treats every issue you present... and then some, going above and beyond in diagnosis , treatment and prognosis, look no further than Dr. David Kayne. read more
