I was referred to Dr. Kagan, by a friend who kept raving about him. I finally decided to go to him myself an had to concur with my friend, Dr. Kagan is great.
He is very knowledgeable and treats his patients like people not a number. He is personable and caring. The best thing I have done for myself was to make him my main doctor.

Testimonials from patients of Dr. Kagan
Dr Kagan is outstanding. He is so kind, he listens and explains things thoroughly. When I want to contact him, he responds quickly. My husband has multiple medical problems. When he asked if he could become one of Dr Kagan's patients, Dr Kagan asked if we could be at the office in 30 minutes!!! He has taken excellent care of him and when he felt he needed to see a specialist, the… See more

Thank you
I have known Dr. Kagan for thirty years. Through that time he has guided my health care and it's so good to know that his advice is backed with strong knowledge and experience. I am here today because 24 years ago he was the one to send me for a scan on a hunch that started the early diagnosis of my cancer. I got the timely surgery I needed to save my life. He has my trust
I'm not sharing one story about Dr. Kagan, one single moment when he was at his best. That is precisely what makes him such a special physician. He is always operating at a peak, listening carefully to everything the patient tells him, answering questions, always focusing his keen intelligence on what he's seeing and hearing, and applying his wealth of knowledge and experience to… See more
My title speaks for itself. He has been my doctor for over thirty years. He's always been there when I need him. Some years back while on vacation I got ill. I called his office on a weekend and he got right back to me and told me what I should do. I was so thankful. He gives me good, solid advice. He's one of the best in his field. I can't imagine going to anyone else. On the… See more
Patent - kind - available- very nice gentleman- excellent doctor. - stop before I canonize Dr Lee Kagan
Dr Kagan approaches each time you see him as a complete review of the past, he carefully records all and the most important thing I have found that distinguishes him from other doctors that I have ever had is that he really goes over what the outcome is with explanations of what to do or expect . He truly makes you feel like you are the only one that matters while he is with you. A real… See more
I call him Lee, not Dr. Kagan because he's not just a doctor, he's also a friend. When I go in to see him we talk about all kinds of things while he examines me. He always has a great joke and the visit is easy and I always leave feeling all my questions have been answered. One time when I had severe sciatica pain he got me into an excellent back doctor within a day and I had my… See more
