Patient Reviews
Jul 19, 2023
Dr Koostra has a very approachable style. He listens. He asks questions. Then he has a masterful approach, leaving no possibility off of his list. He tests extensively, and he gives you hope that he can find the cause of virtually any medical issue. And, he does it with a smile that you know is sincere. But, best of all, my oxygen level is increasing! And, that is priceless.
