Kristen Smith has given me care and concern that I haven't received from any other doctor. I feel like she actually cares about my health and quality of life. I am very happy to have found her and to be accepted as her patient.

Kristin was wonderful!

I mentioned this in a previous comment, but the Nurse Practitioner I saw, Kristin, was absolutely phenomenal. She really listened, took what I said seriously, and discussed options for next steps we can take. She even suggested blood work just to see where things are at, and it returned some flags I need to pay attention to and make adjustments based upon, so I was really glad I did that.

I was very happy with the care I received from the NP. Had never seen her before. In fact I am considering changing to her because I left with a feeling she really cared about how I felt.

I felt like she really tried to understand and listen to my health issues. She listened and asked follow up questions. I know she is busy, but she did not seem like she was trying to rush me in and out. I felt like she was really trying to put me at ease and establish a connection.
