Patient comments
It is important to be more personal with clients instead of a numbers!
Very good
I want to note that this feedback is not only based on my most recent follow-up visit-it reflects my entire experience with Dr. Stephanie King and her team since the very beginning of my care. From the initial consultation to every step along the way, the compassion, professionalism, and support I've received have been truly exceptionalI was referred to Dr. Stephanie King by a friend who had the same diagnosis 14 years ago, and I feel incredibly fortunate to have been placed in her care. From the moment her office heard about my case, they were compassionate and responsive-scheduling an appointment for me within a week (during holidays).Dr. King is one of the most caring and understanding physicians I've encountered. She listens attentively, shows genuine empathy, and takes the time to answer all my questions with clarity and patience. I truly felt seen, heard, and supported during a very difficult time.I am deeply grateful for her and her entire team. We need more physicians like her-those who treat their patients with such compassion, professionalism, and humanity. There are no words to fully express how thankful I am.
I never saw Dr. King and didn't know that would be the case. I was well taken care of though. Tina is very competent and familiar with my history.
Dr King helped my mom get an extra 11 years with her family and she has been wonderful for all of us. I would recommend her to anyone who needs a compassionate doctor
