I started seeing Dr K many years ago when I worked in Albemarle. Even though I live in Concord and work in Charlotte now, I still see him and plan to continue. He's kind and caring and has helped me live a healthier life. I highly recommend him to anyone. He will help you look at your health in a different way. He's the best!!
