Kristina Holecek is awesome! I had my first appointment with her today, and she was professional, informative, kind, and very thorough. She explains things simply, in a way that's easy to understand. She developed a plan on the spot for diagnostics and treatment, and wrote everything down for me so I wouldn't forget. Looking forward to continuing to work with her!
Caring and knowledgeable. Glad we chose this office.
