Dr. Kiehn is an expectational diagnostician. After reviewing my extensive health history, and current symptoms, within weeks, she was able to test my inflammation treatment response using a Medrol Taper packet and came up with her diagnosis for my not so common autoimmune disease. She is personable and always pleasant to speak with when reviewing my progress. Though my insurance is poor, Dr. Kiehn was always on the ball, and provided them with all the information that was needed to approve my treatment. Other than finding better insurance, there is no one else I trust with my current and future well-being. Jeffry Thomsen 224-369-8531

I can see today because Dr Kiehhn worked with my Opthamologists in 2018 when my immune system crashed and I lost the vision in my left eye and had very little left in my right eye. It was thought I would have to have cornea transplants, but thanks to the teamwork of Dr. Kiehn and the Opthamologists my vision was saved. I will always be thankful to her for her expertise and kindness.

External Professional Relationships

Pharmaceutical, device, and biotechnology companies frequently collaborate with basic scientists and physicians within an academic medical center to help advance science and improve patient care.
