My previous APRN resigned from the practice I was using abruptly and I was unable to get an appointment with another provider in a reasonable time frame.
Mr. Kirui's practice was very thorough and he was a great listener and took time to get to know me. He is very empathetic and even though we were doing a virtual call I could tell he cared because he had visible compassion in his eyes and face.
I wanted to find a provider that I can stay with long term and I am so glad I gave him a try. He is local as well and I also like that aspect.

I can't stress this enough; if you are looking for an exceptional provider, John Kirui, APRN is easily the most talented mental health professional I have ever encountered. He possess a rare blend of deep empathy and clinical expertise that makes every session feel productive. I never felt like 'just another patient'; I felt seen. I’m incredibly grateful for their help and wouldn't consider going anywhere else. A truly glowing recommendation.
