I don't think I've met a kinder & more personable doctor than Dr. Kravarusic. This is on top of her ability to make you comfortable about understanding what is going on with you as a patient. She is very thorough and explains all that needs explaining. I've been very happy with the care I've gotten and without a doubt would recommend Dr. Kravarusic to anyone needing care in endocrinology.
