Dr. Kosmo is wonderful. He has a very comfortable nature about him. He is kind and down to earth. But even more importantly he knows his stuff. You can just tell he is one of the best Dr.'s around. He explains everything making sure you understand and he listens. I wish I had seen him sooner.

I was referred to Dr. Kosmo by my surgeon. I had a double mastectomy in June. I felt Dr. Kosmo was very kind and explained my prognosis well. He took into consideration my desires for treatment and was willing to work with me . The nurse I had was very nice and the M.A. to Dr. Kosmo, Maryann was very helpful and kind also. Would totally recommend this Doctor.
