Excellent! Dr. Nakao was able to diagnose something that I have spent four years getting diagnosed by other doctors who couldn't figure out what was wrong with me. He nailed it, treated me, and I have never felt better. Not perfect, but better. Office staff seemed a little brusque.

Diagnosed my very rare, life threatening illness when other doctors weren’t even convinced I was sick, and got me treated before I had any permanent lung damage. He’s the kind of doctor you usually only see on TV; he really cares about and advocates for his patients and is willing to research when the diagnosis isn’t immediately obvious, which is something many doctors unfortunately lack when dealing with patients with unusual symptoms.

Dr. Nakao was very pleasant, interested, unhurried, intelligent.

Excellent experience. Researched and discovered my illness that nobody else was able to identify. Very nice and explained things clearly and completely. Wait time was a little long, but that's to be expected these days.

I found that Dr. Nakao's communication skills were lacking. He spoke very unclearly and when I could understand him he seemed condescending. I cannot speak to the accuracy of his diagnoses or treatment modalities, (one visit is not enough to make the judgment) but I left without a feeling of trust.

Told Doctor I would feel like I was going to pass out after a short 5 minute walk. Dr Nakao told me to walk to the point of passing out and then do it all over again. 2 weeks later I was in the hospital with a heart blockage. Not a Doctor to trust.
