    Kristen is great. Very caring and tries to work with you even though i think she pushes medication on people and is very slow to take you off of anything. I requested to be taken off of a blood pressure med more than a year ago and I feel like I’m getting the run around about it and nothing is being done

    See previous comment at beginning of this survey. Kristen Szabo sets the standard for medical practitioners. She combines extraordinary medical knowledge with a superb ability to listen, evaluate, and identify relationships among the health indicators of her patients. She explains assessments and options clearly and thoroughly. In sum, she is my principal reason for remaining with Optum.
