She was very knowledgeable and helpful. She was nice that I was late for the appointment due to technical issues.

The first thing I told her was that I wanted to switch meds and she wasn’t willing to switch my medication

Honestly, this was the absolute worst telehealth experience of my life. This morning I was told by a primary care physician to see a specialist. So I found a "specialist", Francine, who was extremely difficult to understand, wasted 38 mins of our time - just to tell me she wouldn't help me, and that I should instead see a PCP. She knew I already had.
I have been prescribed a medication for more than 20 years (10 of those by my previous doctor), but I just moved to Maryland and therefore just need a MD RX asap until I can figure out doctors here. Thought ZocDoc would be a quick fix- mostly because ZocDoc has NEVER let me down -- until today.
Francine legit REFUSED to prescribe my ADD medication because I shared with her that not only does it work for ADD, it also helps with fatigue. This literal *fact* is apparent on Google / all over the world, yet Francine took it upon herself to refuse to help me.
Worst. Experience. Ever. Total waste of time.
Do NOT recommend.
Disgusting.

Felt very comfortable talking to her about things I feel embarrassed telling others. She just gives you this feeling of comfort
July 27, 2023Talal B.Verified patient
She really seems interested and eager to help. She asked an did more in one session than someone I went to over several sessions. I look forward to my future appointments.
July 19, 2023Donald M.Verified patient

PMHNP Francine Kamhoua has awesome bedside manner. She listened to my concerns, offered great insights, and had genuine concern for my wellbeing and understanding of what next steps are best for my care.
