- 4 out of 5 starsReviewed on 10/30/2025
I would like to say that I liked the nurse only visit,( before the appointment with Dr.Kuester) so Dr K. and I didn't have to discuss all of the questions and waste time. Next, I think Dr.K is a good doctor, but I always feel rushed during our appointments. I know it is out of her control, because she is only allowed so many minutes for each patient, but I think doctors should have a little more time with each patient, if needed. She talks fast and types at the same time she's talking, so it made me feel like a number; one more on the list that she could check off. Again, I know it's not her fault. It's the billing system, etc.
