    This was our first time seeing Katarina. She was attentive and interested in how our daughter was doing. She made helpful suggestions and referred us to the physical therapist on staff before we left.

    Katrina Waters APRN exceeded my expectations. She was extremely caring and took more than my fair amount of time to ensure we were going over everything for my first visit. As a nurse myself, I understand the busy schedule and having to make my patients feel heard and cared for. It was refreshing to walk away from my appointment knowing that I had a great plan based on my symptoms and her knowledge and understanding of my diagnosis.

    Katia cares, personal interaction is motivating! This problem solving visit was typical ... listened, drafted plan with contingency, leveraged appropriate specialist, left with defined followup.
