Had a great experience at my first appointment. Felt very comfortable all around and glad that I found Dr. Kinga Budnicka for my PCP needs.

My original appointment with this doctor was for the lymph node in my neck. She checked my history and saw I had my first anxiety attack and went to the hospital. Kinga then tried to give me anti anxiety medication instead of helping me with the enlarged lymph node and things went left once I didn’t take them. I’m constantly asking for additional help and scripts for my additional pains that are not going away. I can tell she doesn’t want me at her office anymore. ALWAYS CHECK YOUR CLINICAL NOTES.

I highly recommend Dr. Kinga as a primary care physician. As a new patient, it is important for me to feel comfortable and trust my doctors. Dr. Kinga took the time to listen carefully to my concerns and made me feel genuinely heard and respected. I don't feel rushed and she explained to me clearly the plan of my care and made referrals on important aspects of my health. The office staffs are approachable and profesional as well.

Dr. Kinga is an excellent primary care physician. She is thoughtful, thorough, and genuinely attentive, and never makes you feel rushed during appointments. She takes the time to listen, asks the right follow-up questions, and explains things clearly without being condescending or dismissive.
What really stands out is how proactive and compassionate she is — she looks at the full picture, not just symptoms, and makes you feel supported rather than judged. Communication is clear, follow-ups are timely, and I always feel confident that my care is in good hands.
I highly recommend Dr. Kinga to anyone looking for a PCP who is knowledgeable, professional, and truly cares about her patients.
