WHAT PEOPLE SAY ABOUT PROF.DR. KANDIL?

I give Dr. Kandil 5 stars. He was very patient & informative with me. I was scheduled for thyroid surgery removal, but I found Dr. Kandil on google search. He introduced me to another method before considering surgery. ABLATION OF THE THYROID! It's a one day procedure. I had the ablation on my thyroid in July 2024 & within 4 months I have over 50% of shrinkage on my thyroid.

After going to 2 different specialists trying to look for a second opinion for saving my thyroid, I found about Dr. Kandil. He took the time to explain my options and gave me hope with the procedure of radio frequency ablation (RFA) which is a procedure that has been in the US for only a few years and he is one of the few doctors to perform it in the US. I like that he stays on top of the latest in his field. His knowledge and compassion makes him one of a kind.

Dr Kandil is an excellent surgeon! All of my interactions with him, his Nurse Practitioner, Wendy Navarro, residents, nursing staff and front office staff have been excellent. Wendy responded to any questions or concerns I had with such genuine concern that it made my healing process smoother. Martina, the front office staff member you meet when you go into the office, was able to troubleshoot issues I was having with my insurance and was my hero for the day! They were all very attentive to my needs and responsive to any questions I had. I couldn’t have asked for a better surgeon. Dr. Kandil is one who is not only an excellent surgeon, but has a great sense of humor and a great bedside manner. I highly recommend him!

Dr. Kandil is an excellent surgeon. Both him and his staff are nice and patient. He helps guide your decision making by providing all options available with supporting evidence. I would strongly recommend him to anyone.

Margaret Larsen

Probably one of the best endo docs I've met in 20 years of having nodules. I don't live in New Orleans but grew up there. I can't say enough great things about Dr.Kandil and his entire staff for RFA and treatment of my thyroid. So glad I was lucky enough to find him and he agreed to work on my nodule when everyone else recommended total thyroidectomy. Thanks Dr Kandil. Here is hoping all keeps going well and I would travel again to see this practitioner.
