In patients' words
"Have been seeing Dr. Kay for years for SLE. Have been very happy with my care received and everyone in the clinic."
— WebMD review for Dr. Jonathan Kay"He is extremely compassionate , takes the time to listen and has the knowledge and devotion to continuously strive to refine my therapies... I would highly recommend him to anyone."
— Healthgrades review for Dr. William Traverse"I contacted this physician as she was recommended and closer than Boston. No full exam, she is too busy with other things and only to be pushed off to a Nurse Practitioner."
— Healthgrades review for Dr. Karen Salomon-Escoto"Dr. Wolf never called back. I called 3 times. I needed a refill on medication and nothing. I don't know who's dropped the ball, the office staff or the doctor himself, but it's so wrong."
