Wonderful physician- thoughtful comprehensive and cares about shared decision making.
The office forgot about me and left me waiting for far too long but now I know and will speak up next time.
May 20, 2026Sharon H.Verified patient
The office rescheduled my initial appointment over a month. I finally did see the doctor she was perfectly nice and listened to me, which can be rare in a doctor, but seemed under-informed of my condition. She sent me for additional test that same day in the same hospital and said she would call back to discuss the results in 2 weeks. We had discussed that PT would not likely be helpful for me. After 2 weeks with no call i called her office and left a message with the receptionist. This happened 2 more times. Over a MONTH later, i get a call. I did not speak to the doctor. The receptionist relayed my test results and said they would refer me to PT. No opportunity to speak with the doctor or review my results. I tried to call back and was sent to some call center that said they would “relay a message” that i wanted to speak with the doctor. Went to see if i could book a telehealth just to review the results as promised and she is booked out months. Overall disappointed.
May 16, 2026Sarah W.Verified patient
Dr Kitchin is fantastic. I booked the appt based on reviews on ZocDoc and I'm very glad I did. She is personable, thorough, and knowledgeable.
May 4, 2026Amanda S.Verified patient
Dr Kitchen was very kind thorough and extremely knowledgeable. We went over my labs my symptoms and she did a complete physical just to see where my pain was prominent. Then we went over all the options including new therapies. I felt heard and understood and I appreciate that most of all. Definitely staying with her. Thank you Zoc doc for linking me to her

October 25, 2025Kia G.Verified patient
The doctor was great and so was the resident who was assisting her. The waiting area and staff were not friendly, nor were the lab technicians on the first floor that I saw afterward. Still, the doctor herself was great.
