5.0 star star star star starI absolutely love Dr. Kircher! From the very first time we spoke, I felt completely at ease. She's not only incredibly knowledgeable_especially when it comes to colon cancer_but she also has such a compassionate and reassuring presence. I truly enjoy talking with her. She takes the time to listen, explain things clearly, and always makes me feel like more than just a patient. It's rare to find a doctor who combines expertise and empathy so seamlessly. I'm so grateful to have her in my corner!

5.0 star star star star starShe listens and goes over options that she thinks is in the best interest for me and my case. Not every doctor actually listens. I have complete trust in her decisions and I know if something isn't working she wants to do something about it.
