Fair rating for our 1st and LAST visit with Kate. Absolutely no reason for Kate to scoff, roll her eyes or discharge us with a hateful, condescending demeanor leaving us in tears after what was supposed to be a simple check-up for mild symptoms. Unfortunately after this disappointing visit, further community research was conducted on this provider..and yikes. Families of color or first-time parents,. I urge you to please seek providers who do make you feel safe, comfortable AND respected as a parent with health concerns for a child.
