Kaitlin was great. Knowledgeable and kind. It’s too bad she’s moving to the burbs.

Kaitlyn is extremely smart and efficient. She knows more than any other migraine specialist I’ve ever dealt with in the past. She goes to bat with my insurance company when need be and her vast experience with Botox injections is clear because it doesn’t hurt like it has with other providers. I can’t imagine seeing anyone except her!

My score is a reflection based on my visit notes the NP wrote on me. Again, it seems like personnel who have no qualifications or previous study in psychiatry want to only send patients that route. Regardless of how laid back or calm and collective I actually am. If I were to take a guess, I would say the quality of northwesterns 'speciality' personnel have gone down as I'm sure NW does not want to pay experienced actual M.D.s and resort to underpaying young, unqualified NP like such provider above. Never have I felt like I have been treated like such a cow based on post visit notes, labeled upon what diagnosis they feel I might have. It's interesting to know they worry more if I have ever taken SSRI's than daily constant exposure to the sun or maybe if I have a proper sleep schedule. I definitely will be resume my care at Rush and will disregard any irrelevant nodoc opinion. 'If they can't sell me anything then I'm not a good patient'.

She was wonderful about explaining things to me and getting my opinion on treatment methods. It was so reassuring and made me confident we picked the preventative I can be most consistent about taking.

Kaitlyn was very thorough. I feel that she asked me every question imagining. Kaitlyn noticed my facial issues that I had no idea were there. She took my complaints seriously and set up an appointment immediately. I felt as if she knew me for years and this was our first meeting. I feel very confident that I chose the right provider.

She's full of patience. You feel in control of your care be she treats you almost a colleague, even though that's far from the fact.
