Patient Reviews
Jan 18, 2023
Dr. K goes above and beyond. Even on my first visit, I felt listened to and never once treated like I was a hypochondriac, which can be very common in Rheumatology, I have learned. She was the first rheumatologist I have seen who immediately agreed with me on what I thought my diagnosis was and worked a treatment plan out on the spot. Her team is also much better at getting back to calls/emails than any other doctor I have visited!
