Appt went well!
Horrible. I waited in the waiting room for over 20 min before deciding to call the office. They were unaware of my appointment even though they confirmed multiple times. They require past notes before the will refill a prescription which took longer than it should have. Once my script was sent it, the pharmacy tried reaching out to the doctor for questions and it has been over 2 days with no response so they still can’t fill it. Overall, it has been the worst experience ever dealing with this doc:/office.

They are always available, always follow up on visits and the Doctor and practitioners are always on time for visits. It's nice to feel heard and cared about. I highly Recommend K.

I highly recommend Dr. Kaleigh! From our first appointment she has helped me navigate starting new treatments, walked me through several options and their pros and cons, and is very receptive to my feelings and needs. She is efficient, thoughtful, and does a wonderful job in ensuring you feel cared for and heard. It is very easy to get in contact with Dr. Kaleigh and AB Holistic’s admins have been just as supportive. If you are hoping to seek help and understanding about your anxiety or unwanted emotions, I recommend her and this team.
My questions are always answered and I never feel rushed. It means a lot to me to know that I can take my time and process what is being said to me. Having AuDHD and knowing that I have someone who understands means a lot to me
