    I found Dr. Nakamoto to be very good to talk with. She listened well to my concerns, and answered many of my questions. She even offered the suggestion that I could make another appointment in 2 weeks to get more of my questions answered.

    Nakamoto does not ever address my plunging haemoglobin levels and sends me to ER where I get no help at all. Nakamoto refuses me life-giving dialysis care

    My three visits with Dr Nakamoto has generated the highest of confidence in her ability to diagnose, treat and plan for my specific condition. She is always prepared and enters into the consulting context with genuine concern while conveying an attentiveness that translates into action on my behalf. I simply could not ask for more from this practitioner.
