Michael S Katcher, MD

Dr. Katcher is a treasure. He listens, he's attentive, he explains things clearly, I never feel rushed, & he has a great patient rapport.

I felt heard, and they took time to reflect what I asked or shared and provided clear responses that were both clinically accurate while very understandable. They were sensitive to my worry and concerns while also bringing their own personality and style in how they communicated, which helped build comfort and rapport.

Best doctor's appointment I've ever had. He was on top of my case and analyzed all test results. He listened and never felt rushed, providing me his undivided attention. So happy I found him.

It was overall very good. There was a bit of lack of communication between Holy Family and the Mass Gen system. The cardiologist didn't have access to my health records immediately from the original reason I was there (a-fib). Not his fault.

I couldn't have asked for a more comfortable, reassuring, pleasant experience. Dr. Katcher is kind, obviously knowledgeable, caring, and has a wonderful sense of humor - something I really apreciate (and need) in a doctor. I have already recommended him to a friend.
