Very professional and useful

Doctor Kaneshiro, and residence/medical student, we’re both very professional and understanding. Dr. Kaneshiro was knowledgeable and helpful in regard to my medical condition and as as much referred me to a more specialized G.I. clinic within UCLA. With a follow up with Doctor Kaneshiro in a few months, or sooner if the need arises. He seemed as mentioned very professional, and was understanding and kind. Hoping I can get to see the specialty clinic physicians and look forward to them hopefully being able to manage the serious medical condition which requires management. Would recommend Doctor Kaneshiro.
