Kristen is the best
Everyone in the office was extraordinarily kind and accommodating. I had most, I had everyone go out of the way to make sure I was comfortable and my scheduling issues were accommodated. I'm very, very happy to go to your office and continue, will continue to do so. Thank you.
I was able to get back on the medication I was prescribed before I lost my regular health coverage due to the government approval of the medication due to cost.
So happy to have found Kristen. She is caring, empathetic, and most importantly extremely knowledgeable!
I had some technical issues with the telehealth. I couldn't, we kept getting disconnected. But Kristen Cummings is nice and she is a good doctor. But the technical issues definitely were an issue. I'm not sure what it was kind of both, it seemed like it was happening on both ends. So there's that. All right. Thank you. Bye.
