    Dr. Kobashi is the best doctor I have ever had in my (75 years old) life. He is patient, supportive and attentive, and he unerringly asks additional questions that help me add missing details or other information I may have omitted. And he is brilliant--far and away The Best. UCSF - don't you dare let anyone hire him away!
