Dr. Kitagawa definitely saved my life, and me and my family are grateful for him. The staff, from scheduling the appointment to checking in and checking out, were extremely friendly and professional. Very welcoming vibe and environment. The nurse practitioner explained everything that happened and what to look forward to, he was very awesome. I had several questions and they answered like they really cared. Thank y'all so much!

Before I met with Dr. Kitagawa, I met with a neurosurgeon resident (I think). I've forgotten his name. The answers in the survey applied mostly to him. He was very informative. So, Dr. K already had that information when he met with me. Overall, I was very satisfied with the visit. Thank you

The group of nurses show dedication to care, professionalism and great patience.

Clinic is under staffed. Long waits. Rushed visits. Medical care is good but under staffing makes it unpleasant

appointment was handled well - very short wait time - clear communications - all questions answered - recommendations provided for future healthcare - very efficient and professional process

Setting up follow-up appointments was a little confusing, especially getting the CT scan. It would have been, I had to wait a whole other week before I had to go into the clinic to talk to the doctor. Just a little help scheduling would have been very helpful.

Dr. Kitagawa and most of his staff have been wonderful. Thank you so much for all that you do!

I loved everything about this experience except one thing. When I called to make my appointment they told me since I was admitted to the memorial Herman hospital and it was a follow up appointment it would be covered and no payment on DOS. The lady also told me the appointment wasn't really needed, but since it was no payment I was going to go. When I got there the front desk lady said I had to make a payment. I explained to her what the lady told me when I called and she said no I still had to make a payment. I had came all the way from Beaumont and had no money to pay since I had been in employed for a whole month. I ended up paying since I came from far. I wish I knew the payment information before the appointment that way I wouldn't have drove all the way to Houston for my appointment. I have no insurance, no money and have been unemployed.

Very efficient office. The staff was prompt and easy to talk to.


Aug 15, 2024

The hospital was very, very clean and the staff were always ready to receive me and they answered all of my questions. The doctor was right on time. After I arrived in the hospital, he came into the waiting room where I was sitting and he greeted me and also when it was time for him to come and talk to me in his office, he came in right on time. So I really, really appreciate the service that your hospital gave me and I will be sending my family members there and thank you guys very much.

Dr. Kitagawa is a very knowledgeable, compassionate, hardworking and very likable neurosurgeon. He is one of the best...


May 30, 2024

As an inpatient through the ER I could not have asked for better care. There was one incident that the nurse gave me something in my IV that had my heart racing and my face very flush. She had to call in a more experienced nurse to reverse the situation.

The Doctor was very professional and easy to talk to.

I was treated kindly by everyone involved, including checkin attendants. As soon as my daughter arrived, three people told her where I was. A great experience.
