5.0 star star star star starShe is kind, caring, and competent and really is interested about how I am feeling. She takes the time to listen to any concerns I have about my health and gives me answers that make me feel I am really important to her. I couldn't ask for a better Doctor.

5.0 star star star star starDr. 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

5.0 star star star star starDr. Kiehn worked closely with my Opthamologists to save my vision when I had lost the sight in my left eye and the right one was going. They were even thinking of setting me up for cornea transplants. I could not have asked for better care and will always be grateful to her.

5.0 star star star star starI 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.
