Seemed very knowledgeable, was very professional and personable as well!
Apr-2023
Instead of asking me IF there had been other treatment prescribed and tried, the question was what other treatment had I tried, as if I was supposed to know what to do. In addition, I had to ask if I could continue certain efforts such as icing, Ibuprofen, etc. As the paid practitioner, I would have expected that direction to come from the staffer. My sense was that the goal was to get me in and out, with a skittle patient interaction, support and direction as possible.

Concerned, lacks some hands on evaluation, communicates well
Jun-2020
It may not be fair to rate Kara specifically, as I also saw other providers at the facility, but it would speak to the team more so as to the preparedness to PSA a patient to three different providers at the same facility and no one after the first visit seemed at all up to speed with the situation.
Jun-2020
