Comments
"Dr. Kashmer is always pleasant and attentive. Allows us plenty of time to discuss my child's ongoing needs and makes me feel comfortable and cared for."
"Dr Kashmer is always kind and caring. She always takes time to listen, answer all questions thoroughly and address all concerns. She is very good at explaining things in a way that makes sense to both the patient and the caregiver. She always shows respect and addresses the patient directly rather with questions about the patient. Always look forward to our time with Dr. Kashmer!"
"We like Dr. Kashmer's care very much. She really treated us very well every time we've seen her. And she really is helpful with giving us information that's fair and objective and helping us make the right decisions. So we're definitely appreciative of her being a member of LVHN."
