12/20/2021

Kristin Cooke, NP saw me on the same day that I called for an appointment, diagnosed what was wrong with my eye, ordered medication which resolved the problem and answered a follow up question regarding medication through the messaging function on the online program In My Chart. This was a very efficient and helpful visit.

11/18/2021

Everything went smooth and very sensitive to my specific needs.

11/17/2021

It was my first time seeing Kristen and she was great. I will definitely see her again for future checkups

10/19/2021

Comprehensive and complete.

10/18/2021

This was my first visit with Kristin Cooke and she was excellent. I switched over form another practice within St. Peter's Health Care.

10/16/2021

I was experiencing vertigo and requested a telehealth call. I received a call from the Nurse Practiconer within the hour. She recommended a method I could try at home, but also recommended physical therapy if I didn't get relief on my own. My follow up call for a PT referral was also acted upon quickly. So, I had quick, courteous service from everyone

09/21/2021

I just love her. She is an excellent provider. All I could ask for.

09/06/2021

So far, I was extremely happy

09/05/2021

She has no bedside manor and was very pushy and snobby about the Covid 19 vaccine. I do not plan on seeing her again.

09/01/2021

I have been with Kristin for many years. I have followed her when she changed office because of the quality of care she gives

05/14/2021

*Kristin Cooke has followed me for many years and is always up to date with my records and shows concern and responds to my issues.

05/01/2021

I truly liked Ms Cook. She was courteous and caring. Did listen to me. I would like to see her in the future for checkups.

my 1st time going there to the practice and the staff were knowledgeable, welcoming & answered any questions i had.

04/10/2021

first time meeting her since my pcp was on maternity leave. She was very pleasant & very attentive to my questions & concerns.

03/29/2021

Kristin has been my provider since I was born. I'm happy I've been able to grow up with her.

03/26/2021

I was not happy with the care I received here. The doctor basically looked at me like I was a drug addict because my former primary had me on certain medications. My needs weren't listened too, they basically told me you either sign this form or you get absolutely no help..

03/15/2021

Kristen Cooke was very attentive to my needs.

03/13/2021

02/11/2021

Poor listening skills. Did not give me a potential diagnosis or explain the blood tests that were ordered. Never asked for any follow up on my September appointment. The appointment is for 30 minutes and she spent six minutes with me.

01/25/2021
