Dr. Kate Hughes was pleasant, very informative, and made me feel confident that she was there to really understand my needs.
Love Kate H and her staff. Very friendly, kind and caring. They take the time to get to know you and address your concerns.
I love Kate Hughes......she genuinely cares for her patients. Thanks
Kate was highly recommended to me and I would do the same to someone looking for a new health care provider in her field of medicine.
Excellent place with caring, attentive staff! Kate Hughes is wonderful. She is thorough and makes you feel comfortable. I'm so happy I found this place!
I was worked into this office urgently (next day) after a visit to the ER. I was seen by Kate Hughes, ARNP. I was overwhelmingly pleased by my very first experience with Kate's attentive and thorough care. She listened to my concerns, moved right to examination and testing that was needed. She explained everything completely and treated me like a longtime patient. She was encouraging and upbeat and I felt more like a cared for friend than first-time patient. The entire staff was kind, helpful, and pleasant. My second visit was a virtual appointment that I would describe the same way.
I have been a patient at WCF for about 4 years, In the past four years I have been nothing but satisfied with the service I have received:).I am not the most compliant PT due to my phobia with needles but Kate Hughes, ARNP Has always been so kind and understanding she must see my name and say ohh lord lol but never makes me feel bad or embarrassed about my phobia also I want to add that instead of having a tech or nurse draw my blood she has done it herself countless times until my Last visit A nurse named Renee did my draw I should say only because I stopped her in the hallway and asked her if she could... She without hesitation said of course and brought me in a private room so I did not feel uncomfortable, I had previously met her and felt more comfortable with her doing the draw vs someone I did not know, She is amazing and always so nice:) , Overall I am always pleased when I have an Appt and always recommend this establishment to my friends and Patients when they ask who I go too
Kate was great!
Kate is amazing! Great first experience!
Nurse practitioner Kate is amazing and super knowledgable. Everyone is very friendly and the office is organize and they are on time every time.
This office is by far the best I have ever been to. I came here for my second pregnancy and was willing to make the drive for a doctor's office that was worth it. Dr. Safi was absolutely incredible and so was Dr. Kate ... They were ALWAYS compassionate, thorough, knowledgeable, and considerate with my pregnancy. Dr. Safi was knowledgeable about a rare disease my brother has (which my current doctor in another city has no idea and never heard of it) and put my concerns at ease. I also had gestational diabetes and although they took all the necessary precautions, they were considerate and reasonable in managing my diabetes so that I never felt overwhelmed, but still did what was needed. I barely ever had to wait at the office - they take your time seriously and they are honestly the first doctor's office I've ever seen operate like that. They are thorough in explaining and answering any concerns you have. Dr. Kate even took care of a serious matter that I had in the hospital (associated with their office) and was EXTREMELY compassionate and serious in regards to ensuring that the matter would be addressed. I'm now in another city with another pregnancy and so so wish I could still go to this office. They are a gem and make the whole experience that much better.
I’ve been coming here to see Kate since 2016! She is always so compassionate and caring towards her patients! The office staff are all super friendly and efficient.
Kate Hughes is an amazing nurse practitioner. She’s very caring and kind and really hears what you have to say. The office is beautiful and 1st class with such sweet staff. I had a fantastic experience and would highly recommend them.
I can say I absolutely love going to my OB-Gyn appointments. Kate Hughes NP, is phenomenal. Apart from treating me with care, ‘knowing’ my story as a woman, and making me feel comfortable, my questions are always answered truthfully. Every appointment is a great experience with her and her staff
I’ve been going here for a few years now. Based of a referral from a family member. Dr. Dukes is great and Kate Hughes is so amazing. She really takes her time and listens. WPOBGYN Kate is a huge asset! Love her.
