“I have been practicing Family Medicine in USA for ten years and I enjoy and love taking care of patients,” Kafa says in the release. “Before joining MMH, I was in Wisconsin and Indiana. Medicine was always my goal and to become a physician was always my dream since I was in elementary school.”

He takes new patients and referrals. He specializes in uncontrolled hypertension and diabetes, as well as depression and bipolar disorder.
