Provider of the Month - November 2023
David Felman, MD, Kent Primary Care

Congratulations to David Feldman, MD, a provider at our Kent Primary Care Clinic and our November 2023 Provider of the Month!

See what one of his patients had to say: "Dr. Feldman treated my son like he was his own. He took time and care to listen to myself and my husband's questions, to even stop and play with my child. My son is autistic. He is three. So it's a very difficult transition to even go to the doctor's office. I had an appointment right before he did with Dr. Feldman. So, we heard my husband bring our son in and go in the room across from where I was. We heard him crying and then nothing. Arunesh who is Dr. Feldman's assistant is amazing as well. She has a way about her that instantly makes you comfortable. When we went over to the room where my son was, Dr. Feldman was immediately engaging with my child. Throughout the appointment he took time to do whatever my son wanted to do. Which was color or the table paper. But also answering our questions, concerns, giving us his opinion and recommendations while we were playing. He has an ease and comfort about him that is surpassed by any doctor I've seen in the past year. And to take time to engage with my child means everything during an appointment. . . . my son needs to be engaged with, especially with new people that are strangers. It makes his world easier to access and it also makes him more comfortable. Dr. Feldman is an A+ in my book. He is current and caring but also at the same time practical. You don't find that much."

See what his colleagues had to say:

He makes his patients feel like family.
Even the Russian and Ukrainian population appreciate his attempts to learn some words to greet them with, such as, 'thank you' and 'goodbye'.
Medical Assistants say he is an awesome provider to work with. He is always positive and receptive to staff questions and concerns.
His priority and focus are on giving the patient the best care.
He makes decisions by considering all the details, and carefully reviews paperwork before signing.
He is an attentive listener and expresses himself with calmness and understanding.
We are very lucky to have him as part of our team at Kent PC.
