National Jewish Health Patient – May, 2023

My primary provider contact in the Allergy/Immunology Clinic was Dr. Kelly Shibuya who is in the Fellowship program. She was delightful! She was friendly, determined and a good listener. She seemed smart as a whip! I liked her very much and she put me very much at ease! I met Dr. Katial when he came in to discuss my case as her attending.
National Jewish Health Patient – April, 2023

Dr Rohit Katial is one of the best physicians I've ever met.
National Jewish Health Patient – March, 2023

Dr Katial was very friendly. He listened to my concerns and made sure I was comfortable with the process of allergy test. He ensured there were nurses available and when I reacted to the allergy test he was prompt to getting Zyrtec to me immediately. I felt completely safe testing something that's previously put me in anaphylactic shock.

The BEST DR. In Denver!

National Jewish Health Patient – November, 2022

Appreciate advice on seeing a nutritionist and doing skin test
National Jewish Health Patient – November, 2022

Both doctors listened attentively and remembered information I had told them from previous visits I had with them about the ongoing issues. They understood what I was trying to explain and knew what the symptoms could indicate then explained what it was and how it affected the body systems.
National Jewish Health Patient – November, 2022

Any reservations I have involve follow up. The appointment itself was ideal.
