Kristen McFarland is the ultimate primary care physician. She is extensively knowledgeable, seeks additional knowledge as needed, follows carefully recommendations from specialists while ensuring that there are no conflicts with other aspects of the patient's health issues and has a wonderfully concerned, patient, and personal approach to her patients. She never seems to be hurried and engages easily with her patient. I gave her a "10" only because you didn't give me "20" as a choice!
