Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

An outstanding PCP
Very passionate. She has been my PCP for many years. Dr.Kiger explains in detail what issues I'm experiencing, always listens to my explanations and concerns with complete understanding before any treatment or advice. She's caring, understanding and compassionate! She's very good at showing me any test results with complete explanation and how to adjust or handle what is an issue. The most important thing about Dr.Kiger is she truly cares about her patients and makes sure I understand before I leave her office. She's extremely good at making referrals if need be. Dr.Kiger has been my PCP since 2012 and I appreciate her so much. Makes you feel comfortable well informed and for me she always greets with a smile and I leave her office the same way. An absolute wonderful Physician. I would highly recommend Dr.Kiger 100%

Honest Review
Dr. Kiger has been a blessing to me and my family. I started seeing her many years ago, when I was a fairly simple once a year checkup patient. In 2020 they all changed and I went through a major health change for the worse. She was caring, knowledgeable, compassionate, and helped me through. I thought I was going to die but I made it and she has helped with every need. My family and I are so thankful for her.

Highly Recommend
Dr. Kiger is without a doubt the best doctor I have ever had. I have been a patient of hers for over a decade and have never had a health issue she could not identity, triage, and successfully treat upon any visit. She has helped me successfully manage my anxiety disorder and adhd; making it possible for me to be successful in my life & career. I once had a therapist who was sending me to a doctor to prescribe a heavy mood stabilizer due to having stressful days at home. Dr. Kiger immediately pointed out this misdiagnosis and let me know this person was pressuring me into taking a heavy mood stabilizer medication (very drowsy) and that his misdiagnosis may not be in good faith. I quit seeing that therapist a few months after, and she was correct. Kiger helped remove me a from a dangerous situation and referred me to a new therapist. Dr. Kiger is an advocate and trusted advisor to all of her patients.I give Dr Katherine Kiger my highest recommendationSincerely,Samantha S

I’ve been sickly since I was born and Dr Kiger is truly one of the best doctors I have ever been to. I am so thankful for her!!

Dr Kiger is the best. She listens, and she knows her patient. Actually I feel like more than a patient because of the way she takes time to explain and answer my questions (And I have a lot).
