Kisandra Rickard, PNP

We love Kisandra. She really takes time to listen to all our concerns. She is gentle and understanding to our son and even to us as sometimes anxious parents. She talked to us for as long as we needed and answered all our questions. Its obvious she cares about our son. Thank you. She even took time out to help me with my daughters medicine refill who didnt even have an appointment that day. She is a excellent pediatric NP.

The specific NP who seen my child did not even look at the area as to where the issue is. States it would be too "traumatic". However, (myself an ICU RN) seems to me a provider needs to lay eyes on the are of issue to fix the area of issue. But we will just give them some cream and go on our merry way. If the child needed to already pee in a hat for a UTI test, why not look at the area with a yeast infection? I do not understand this concept?

Next day, my child had a fever of 103 after expressing my concern for infection. Indeed had severe strep infection. I was told to wait a week and comeback. This isn't the first time

Our concerns for our daughter were NOT listened to. She was not stwabbed for anything even though the PA was told that there were 2 other sick people in our house! She wanted us to "come back on Monday" if she got worse, but we weren't able to wait until Monday because our daughter was already running a high fever, and it just got higher over night. We took her to another doctor, and sure enough, she had Flu A which could have been found had the PA done get job correctly! She could have been started on the proper medication sooner if she would have been checked thoroughly!

I would say it's a good place, but like any doctors office, expect to be there at least an hour.

She made me feel more at ease than I have ever felt since moving down to Tennessee. I've never been so happy with how clear & understanding she was.

Nurse practioner was so rude and had an attitude. She would not do the culture I requested said she didn't have the machine which was a lie because Dr widner had just done the same culture on my daughter. She wasn't gonna run a test at all until the student mentioned one in front of me and she had to do it then. She acted like I didn't knownwhat I was talking about I will NEVER let my children see her again. However Dr widner is the best and will continue seeing him only.

NP is always attentive and informative. She really seems to care and is gentle and follows signal from my son to make sure he's as comfortable as he can be
