We love Kristen! She always remembers us and is very interested in how the girls are doing. She answers all our questions and makes sure my daughter understands and answers her questions

I have seen most of the doctors from this office and Kristen is the only one to take a minute and alliw my child to warm up to her. And guess what? She was able to do her exam. Others have not been able to and put in their notes that my 2 year old is fussy. Is she fissy or is EVERYONE except Kristen in a rush.

We love Ms. UPTON!! I have seen several doctors in this practice and honestly was making calls to go to a different pediatrician until we found her.
