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.

She’s a fantastic physician!

I went to Dr. Kinder on a recommendation from a good friend after my long-time provider retired. Bed side manner was not the best and my appt felt rushed. I explained an issue I was experiencing and she dismissed it. I asked about continuing to put on weight even with diet and exercise and was told I should accept it because of my age. I returned a year later with weight loss that was not acknowledged and nearly fell off the table after my exam bc she slid the extender back in. Again, appt was rushed. I decided that was my last appt and switched providers where I learned I had a long-term medical issue that required surgery. The symptoms of it I had raised with Dr. Kinder two years earlier and were dismissed. Sorry i didn’t switch providers after my first encounter.

Efficient, thorough and helpful.
My experience with Dr. Kinder has been very positive. I had an appointment at about 5 months to check on medication and had a few questions. I am in my late 30s, had asthma problems with my pregnancy and a previous miscarriage. I am not sure what other patients mean by short. But maybe because I am German, I appreciated her direct and efficient answers. She listened to all my hiccups from this pregnancy, answered all my questions and gave great suggestion. She also ended up doing an ultrasound despite me not being scheduled for one to mostly make me feel better that everything is well with tiny. I have been very happy with her.

I’ve had to see Dr. Kinder a couple of times and she always seems rushed. She is nice and answers all questions, but always as quick as possible, doesn’t try to be friendly and runs out of the room as fast as she can.

Dr Kinder is professional and knowledgeable. I had kids before I moved to this area, but I would imagine that in a delivery situation, she would be calm, kind, honest, measured, and intelligent - all things you want when someone is delivering your precious baby. When I ask her about tests and meds I feel like she really explains the pros and cons, which helps me reach the best decision with confidence. It is a bonus that she is a working mom who understands the stressors that impact my health.

I found out today that I was most likely experiencing a miscarriage. In my shock and tears at this news I was waiting in Dr.Kinder's office only to have her come in, playfully pat my arm and in a cheerful voice ask me "How ya doing?" Obviously this is not the type of attitude to have with a woman who has just learned she lost her baby. More thoughtful consideration should really be expected and I'm extremely disappointed in the lack of compassion on her behalf.

She is nice but she's always very short. I always feel rushed with her and it makes you not really want to ask questions. The 3 times I've had to see her I've always had to call back and ask for information. I've moved my appointments around where I was scheduled with a different provider but I ended up having to move it and was given her. If you don't mind the rush and than I would recommend her. She wasn't mean or rude or anything like that.
