Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

April 15 Appointment
I saw Dr.Kasi’s PA on my 3 month surveillance appointment. Very kindly and thoroughly explained the protocol and necessary scans for my diagnosis. I had my bloodwork done by the nicest phlebotomist who has a calming effect on me. Very professional and courteous staff.

I was early and was taken right away. This was a 6 month follow up appointment and the doctor was familiar w my test results and was prepared with further testing during this visit. The doctor discussed my case answered my questions, scheduled my next appointment and sent me for additional tests.

Far and above the rest!
I went to see Dr. Kasi after visiting top oncologists at other NYC hospitals and he was by far the most knowledgeable and uniquely familiar with all of the cutting edge treatments. He thinks out of the box and treats patients like people, not numbers. He is thorough and caring and takes the time to explain everything in detail. For the first time since my cancer diagnosis, I feel like I am in good hands. I am thankful every day that I was led to his care. He stands alone in this field.

Monitoring after treatment
I see Dr. Kasi for follow up after immunotherapy treatment for Lynch Syndrome cancer. I count on his knowledge of cutting edge liquid biopsy technology to detect expected upcoming cancers early. Traveling from the Midwest to NY makes sense for me.

Excellent doctor
I saw Dr. Kasi for a second opinion. He was extremely knowledgeable about the latest tests, treatments, and trials. He was caring, thoughtful, and very generous with his time. He even walked me over to have bloodwork done, which was such a kind gesture. Dr. Kasi was willing to explore aggressive options tailored to my specific circumstances, when others just defaulted to the passive standard of care. He also goes above and beyond to be accessible. I’m very grateful to have Dr. Kasi’s expertise and guidance now that I’m in surveillance.

Caring, Kind, Knowledgeable.
Dr. Kasi not only presented a clear path for me but did so in a caring, respectful manner. He explained to me and my wife a course for treatment and his rationale behind it. This was done clearly, in terms we could understand. When you get the diagnosis you feel like you are upside down. Dr. Kasi made me feel 100 times more confident. I had not slept a full night until I had an appointment with Dr. Kasi. He is a kind, respectful and knowledgeable professional. I would strongly urge anyone going through this to see Dr. Kasi.

If not for Dr. Kasi, I wouldn’t have been here. He is not only knowledgeable about the traditional treatments but also open minded to newer treatments and he will carefully choose the best course of treatment for you. His caring and kind heart saved my life and no word can express the gratitude I have for him.

Dr. Kasi is very kind, professional, and patient
Dr. Kasi spent two hours! with us patiently explaining anything we needed to know. He answered whatever questions we had in the most kind and gentle manner. It was a pleasure talking to him, albeit under difficult circumstances. Talking to him put us at ease despite the difficulty of the situation. We highly recommend Dr. Kasi to anyone in need!

Review of Dr. Kasi
I am a new patient of Dr. Kasi. He put me at ease explaining in detail what my treatment consisted of ensuring that myself and wife both understood. He even went and explained trial options I may be qualified for and where At the end of our visit my wife and I both were very impressed with Dr. Kasi as my oncologist and told him so. I highly recommend Dr. Kasi who is very professional.
