Dr. Katigbak is one of the most sincere physicians that I have ever met. He is through with the examination, his questions and concerns ..and more importantly..he did not rush the appointment..He gave me sufficient time to explain what my symptoms were, frequency etc.He continued to ask pertinent questions so that he was able to understand more of my medical situation. He has a great bedside manner..he made me feel very comfortable talking to him and again, explaining my symptoms. He is a very caring person and delves into your medical history to truly understand your personal medical history..Pleasant, extremely knowledgeable and honest.

Best thoracic surgeon ever

5 out of 5 stars

I have had a few operations with Dr. Katigbak he is a very good surgeon everything always goes smoothly.

4 out of 5 stars

Doctor Katigbak was very professional and knowledgeable about my broken ribs. He offered good information and a plan to help me heal. I would visit him again if need be. However, the office staff was very unprofessional. The front desk person would not look at me or acknowledge my presence. There was another employee sitting at her desk with her head on the desk. Because of the unprofessionalism of the staff, I would have to thin twice about visiting this practice again. I certainly did not feel like I was taken care of in my delicate state. Once again, doctor Katigbak was wonderful.

5 out of 5 stars

I couldn't have asked for a more compassionate doctor. His whole staff was awesome and a lot of things had accomplished in the 45 minute appointment. Dr. Katigbak and his staff were amazing. I would recommend him to anyone with thoracic issues. You will not be disappointed.
