Dr Kapp is very conscientious and ordered one more scan prior to the procedure to be certain it was necessary. He also communicated directly with my care team of physicians at Northwestern coordinating follow-up and ensuring the highest level of care. Dr Kapp is very personable, has a sense of humor, and very skilled. He followed up with me promptly after the procedure that was very successful and I am feeling better than ever. Many thanks to Dr Kapp and his team.

Didn't expect Dr. Kapp to even be at this appointment. Thought they would just do the scheduled procedure, and that would be it. Dr. Kapp not only made sure all would go well, but the Anesthesiologist made every effort to know my concerns, and to make sure she did everything possible to make sure I was getting the best care. So refreshing to have doctors who really care about those in their care.
