Personal Statement
I strive to apply the latest technology, medical evidence and experience to surgery for complex diseases of brain function, including epilepsy, movement disorders and pain.
I am inspired every day by the needs of my patients and by the trust they place in me. I want each of my patients to feel listened to, understood, well-informed and treated respectfully, ethically and with compassion at all times, so that we can make the right decisions together.
My team and I will strive to be available, by your side and guiding you through your entire evaluation and treatment.
Patient Comments
Dr Kasoff was extremely helpful and provided the data to assist me in making a decision.
Good
Dr. Kasoff and staff were very professional and courteous
I did not feel that the Doctor was very concerned about the way I felt or my concerns and I just feel a little uneasy about his evaluations.
I met Dr. Kassoff and his staff because I was involved in an accident. Dr. Kassoff and his staff were wonderful to me. My accident was very traumatic to me and they made me feel very comfortable and safe. They were very courteous and respectful and very understanding. I hope no one ever has to go through the trauma that I went through but I would highly recommend Dr. Kassoff and his practice.
