      My provider has a perfect knowledge of his area of specialisation. He handled my medical issues with unmatchable proficiency and professional dexterity. I am indeed very happy that he's the provider I met in my first visit to Johns Hopkins in 2016. He is calm and patient. He inspires hope and confidence in the patient. He is simply great.

      I drive from out of state to be seen by Dr K. Pienta. I feel confident in allowing him to make the most appropriate decisions about my health needs. He is very knowlegeable and experienced in the field of prostate cancer.

      My visit was excellent. We had a good serious conversation about my condition and treatment. Both the doctor and the nurse were very well prepared and familiar with my history and condition.
