Dr. Kulkarni has a pleasant way about him & provided me a "full report" of the status of my heart health based on the EKG results. Would not hesitate to recommend him! Ed P.

We were seen earlier than our actual appointment and Dr Kulkarni spent a long time with us being very thorough and making every effort to understand the challenges of my husband's medical conditions. We felt comfortable asking questions and were not made to feel rushed at any time.
