Patient Reviews
Apr 07, 2023
I have been working with Dr Kolstad over the past year. She figured out what was going on with me after one or two visits and has been determined to help me find the right medicine for me. She is personable, patient and she really listens. I trust her completely and recommend her highly. I drive 90 miles each way to see her. So grateful to her for making the quality of my life better with an incurable disease. And she loves dogs.
