    Excellent care from Dr. Sivikoti at our visit. Dr. Sivikoti was considerate and showed a great deal of care for my teenage daughter with her recent medical diagnosis, and thoughtfully created a health plan for her. Dr. Sivikoti made a point of reassuring both of us in a kind and sincere manner, which meant a great deal. Compassionate medical care!

    Due to scheduling issues and a sick call, we ended up in Dr. Sivakoti's clinic and we are so glad we did! She explained things well, answered our questions, and reviewed applicable anticipatory guidance until we see her at our next well check. Really great bedside manner. Highly worth the trip up to the main hospital!

    Dr. Kirti is a very nice and amazing doctor. She listens carefully to all our concerns and answers all our questions and gives us the time we need. She's among the few doctors who does not complain when we ask too many questions or when we even take more time than expected!
