As someone who doesn’t like going to the doctor, I have to say that my appointment with Kristin Ballard made me feel at ease because she talked through things thoroughly with me. It was easy to see that she cared deeply about my medical concerns, asked a lot of questions, and didn’t rush my appointment. This is exactly how a doctor should be.
