I met her in the critical care 1 day after my heart attack. She needed to put me to sleep to then stabilise my heart rhythm.

Kristin is a ... read more

She is an Angel. Kristen told me she would be there for me long after the Emergency Critical Care Heart Attack, then was and is there for me, whom she had never met, precisely as promised..

I was there due to fainting episodes that happened several times per day. While there I nearly passed out while she was taking a blood pressure.

She then put me on a heart monitor and said we needed to have me wear that for a month before a follow up. I was still fainting 2-3 times/day. So, pressed for more testing. After the tests she sa... read more

She is amazingly comforting, empathetic, playful. She treats everyone with respect and dignity whether they are in the room or not. She does not shame you, but works positively to listen and work with you to solve your issues. She is amazing in every way I can think of that is important.

I came out of the visit with a strong reason to believe that I could not trust the doctor personally or professionally. I also did not appreciate the heaping helping of condescension from start to finish in our ~5 minute conversation. It sounds from the other reviewers that this isn't typical, but based on my experience, go with a different practice.

I recently saw Dr. Thanavaro as a new patient referral for a heart evaluation. Her care, concern & bedside manner was exceptional. She exemplified a genuine interest in my well being & clearly communicated processes/outcomes. I strongly recommend her as a compassionate, trustworthy & dedicated healthcare professional!

I was happy with her time and knowledge. She explained my condition and I did not feel rushed explaining my concerns. Also enjoyed talking with her about her giant schnauzer puppy and my wife's concerns with our crazy puppies need to eat socks! So we covered my health and my puppies health.
