Astounding!

I have consulted Kesha with several different issues. She is very knowledgeable, kind, respectful and goes out of her way to help families.

Helpful and responsive

I reached out to Kesha Marie several months ago when I had a run in with a physician. I scheduled my annual check up with my physician that I had for nearly 4 years, when I arrived at my appointment the nurse practitioner I saw prior to the doctor told me that I “had” to have a papsmear - even though... I had one the year prior and specifically told her I did NOT want one. She then told me that they would not be able to fill my birth control UNLESS I let them give me a papsmear. After a very unfortunate and demeaning visit to this doctors office I reached out to kesha for advice. I knew what this NP told me was unethical and it made me feel extremely uncomfortable and like I had no choice over what they were going to do to my body. After kesha consulted me and told me my gut feeling was right, I informed the doctors office that it is in fact not required by any form of insurance to have a papsmear in order to get a perscription to birth control and that I would no longer be using their office for my annual checkups. I am so glad that I reached out to kesha, she was extremely helpful, called me back very quickly and gave me the confidence to stand up to something I knew wasn’t right. I would highly recommend to anyone.

Patient and friendly!

I needed assistance understanding some legal terminology in a document, how it applied to my profession, and how it could have an impact on my livelihood. A friend recommended that I give Kesha a call to see if she could help me, which I did. Not only was she able to answer all my questions, but Kesh...a was also very patient and took plenty of time to be sure I truly understood all I needed to in order to make some informed decisions. I've consulted with her numerous times since then and have found her to be consistently patient, friendly, and very knowledgeable.
