    Happy with Dr. Katz. She's conscientious applying her expertise while acknowledging pt may not feel need to do everything she says. Never tension with that, which is a relief. Some doctors think pts. Should defer to their expertise and check out pt. Has different priorities.

    Dr Katz is a genuinely kind, good person whose bedside manner is 2nd to none. My 87 year old father simply refers to her as "Winder Woman". I think that says it all.

    Extremely thorough. Good listener and very detailed in answering my questions or my concerns.She did not make me feel that my questions were unimportant or ridiculous, although she did tell me that getting information online can be too detailed and sometimes confusing and not to take it too seriously

    Dr Katz is great. She is kind and understanding and listens to us! De Katz definitely adds to our peace of mind. We hope she is our primary doctor for as long as we are alive and doesn't move somewhere. She is our third primary care doctor at UCSF.

    Dr Katz went over my entire medical record with me as a first time visit. She was very thorough, but friendly and permitted me time to ask questions.
    Nov 10, 2023
    Dr. Katz is an exceptional care provider. Most drs. Do whatever the appointment Was for. Then, IF they have time, and often with their hand on the door knob, they ask if I have any questions. She asked FIRST, made brief notes on them and answered every one. She is exceptional and makes me feel seen.
