Dr. Charles Karesh, MD

Doctor Karesh has been our family doctor for 29 years and we cannot imagine seeing anyone else. During scout-required annual physical for our middle son, Dr. Karesh recognized an enlarged spleen and immediately ordered some tests to be done. Days later, he contacted me directly and told me I needed to bring my son to the hospital right away. He'd already made arrangements for us to be received at Hopkins. Our son had leukemia and, up until that point, no one had an inkling anything was wrong. Our son is well and thriving now (ten years later) and it's all thanks to Dr. Karesh's care. I challenge you to find a better doctor. We love you, Dr. Karesh. You are a blessing to us!

Dr. Karesh has been our doctor since he was in the Train Station in Mt. Airy about 45 years now, we have followed him to each of his locations because he's a wonderful Dr. he knows his stuff and he listens and cares. We thought of changing Dr. due to driving distance but just couldn't do it he's like family.

Dr. K is a great guy and a great doctor! I’m 58 and he’s been my doctor since I was 17. Good listener too!

He listens to his patient and addresses their concerns. Dr. Karish takes time with the patient. I have had him for my primary care physician for many phases of my life from childhood to adulthood.

I have been seeing Dr. Karesh for the past 17 years and had my children's records transferred to him once they didn't really need a pediatrician. I had an life altering diagnosis given to me 5 1/2 years ago. Once the PET scan was done he gave me the news and made time after hours for me to bring in my boys for a Q & A time. You hear so much stuff it's hard to absorb it all much less repeat it to others who have questions. He even called me after surgery to make sure I was okay!

Dr.Karesh was originally my father's doctor back in Damascus who had diabetes. Doc looked over him for manyyyy years helping him manage the Disease. I didn't start seeing him until I was about 20 and I'm glad I did. He is so calm even in the most confusing diagnosis.

My experience with Dr Karesh started many year ago in Damascus, MD. I was searching for a new doctor & happened to go to the Immediate Care Facilitity in town for a common cold/sinus infection. I was his patient from that point on & followed him to his then practice in the Weis Shopping center in Damascus & since have followed him to his current practice in Germantown, MD He is the absolute most kind, humorous, friendly, dedicated& knowledgeable Doctor I have ever had the privelege of seeing

Dr. Karesh is a seasoned professional that truly cares about his patients. His calm demeanor and high knowledge level has served our family through all kinds of issues. Thank you Doc!
