The Kitchen has taken care of all that. My stress level from trying to figure out how to get medications has been taken away completely. “I’ve been really impressed at how well organized the Kitchen Medical Clinic is. One of the things I’m most impressed with it the Kitchen’s good practitioners. “The providers genuinely care about the patient’s and their outcomes. The staff is great and treats people nicely.
