Dec, 27 2024I have thought a lot about this. After the last visit, same Dr, Flemmer, I really wanted to switch Dr's. At that point I decided to give her one more try. So here's my next visit. I am done with her. I don't like her, I don't like her bedside manor. I think she's rude, she doesn't have the caring touch that other Dr's I've seen have had. Even in the urgent care or any where else. I've never met a Dr like her. I'm sorry, I can't think of what to say to you guys to explain what the issue is so you know how I feel or understand
-
Dec, 17 2024Care provider is unable to engage in conversational talk. In the chart she listed she surveyed me about depression which she did not. Very seldom did she make eye contact
-
Dec, 4 2024Kristen is such a very nice person. She showed deep concern and I really like that.
-
Nov, 28 2024Kristin is very thorough and listens to all of my concerns. She goes above and beyond. I'm very happy that she is my doctor
-
Nov, 26 2024Dr. Flemmer is easy to talk to and shows great concern for me.
-
Nov, 22 2024She didn't even know me and I've been in before. She got me confused with someone else. She said she never took me off a certain medication, but whoever did apparently didn't chart it.
-
Nov, 6 2024I didn't feel very supported in my healthcare decision-making. I felt pressured. I know that she has a job to do and test to recommend, but I feel like I am an intelligent person that can choose my healthcare plan.
-
Nov, 1 2024Always leaves me with feeling she is in such a hurry. I had to bring up a couple things troubling me as she was ending visit. She was much more personal this visit verses my first visit with her last year.
-
Oct, 8 2024The doctor seemed a bit disinterested. She was nice but not very compassionate. My prior doctor was so friendly and truly seems to care.
-
Oct, 2 2024Cecilia, MA & Dr. Flemmer, both listened & responded to questions. Comfortable & personable

Aug, 30 2024Dr. Flemmer was thorough, curious and explained everything very well. Wonderful personality as well. I have already urged my sister and a gal pal to switch to her.
-

-
Aug, 7 2024I like how she asked me about my Husband, and told me a little about her Husband, it made me feel like I was talking to a friend
-
Jul, 30 2024Dr. Flemmer is a very good listener and a caring provider. Thank you.
-
Jul, 17 2024I found Dr. Flemmer to be completely unprofessional and rude. She had no interest in letting me explain my concerns, and when I did, she made it clear that she was frustrated with me. I would have no faith in her caring for me Properly based on my experience yesterday. I would highly recommend others to not see her.
-
Jul, 15 2024Dr. Flemmer was very concerned, engaged in my issues & and more than informative in information & examination thank you Dr. Flemmer & Shawna (?)
-
Jul, 9 2024I'm switching care providers . This is the worst experience with a Dr I've ever had
-
Jul, 7 2024Among the primary care physicians I have associated with during several MultiCare years, Dr. Flemmer and her MA Shawna have been remarkably and unequivocally the most superior in every respect!
-
Jul, 6 2024I know they care enough to help me figure out what's going on with me in the visit, always has a check up if needed
-
Jun, 28 2024I was just there for an annual physical. So no issues
-
May, 27 2024Dr flemmer is extremely kind yet professional. She treats me as a person she cares about.
-
May, 16 2024This was my first visit with her and she was so caring.
-
Apr, 24 2024I saw a new side of Kristen, glad there was no facemask.she seemed much more friendly!
-
Apr, 23 2024Spent a good amount of time with me. Concern about making sure I follow up an a couple things.
-
Apr, 17 2024Provider seemed in a rush and gave me very generic treatment. She treated me like a stereotype for someone my age, not listening to how active and able I am for my age. She prescribed a new medication without explaining what it was supposed to do or if it had side-effects. My review recommended things I am already doing. She did not commend me for my good health practices, such as regular exercise or a well-rounded diet.
-
Apr, 16 2024Dr Flemmer was great to visit with and showed compassion for my health and concerns. She was engaging and a joy to speak with.
-
Apr, 14 2024She listened very carefully and very knowledgeable about the care I needed.
-
Apr, 12 2024I will be contacting the manager of the clinic to let them know of our terrible experience. It was totally uncalled for. We have been with multicare forever and have never been treated so poorly!
-
Apr, 12 2024I was a very happy patient before I was notified of a change in doctor and patient care last year. I had looked forward to this appointment. However I left so disappointed! Doctor never asked me how I felt that day instead I was given a questionnaire on how I felt in the past 2 weeks. Plus, I was told I was healthy but I am not. I am obese person. How can I be healthy? I was not asked if I had other health issues or concerns. I was told I can do a physical exam and blood work.Why? I was just told a minute ago I was healthy. Do I have to do this so the doctor has something to talk to me about? I was not explained what the bloodwork would entail either. I don't want to get billed for something that my insurance may not cover. I wish I can go back to who I was assigned before or at least give me an option who I could see going forward. If I knew it would be a consultation visit I should have been told I could have a online appointment instead.
-
Apr, 10 2024Dr Femmer is very caring person who listens and gives advise I'm happy with her. Women understand women.
-
Apr, 8 2024I've been having a difficult time and it takes me awhile to build a rapport. I was expecting to leave my appointment with the same frustration however I was pleasantly surprised with the outcome of my appointment. Dr Flemmer validated my feelings & was extremely helpful in getting me a referral. I really appreciate her
-
Mar, 27 2024She could be more listening and not trying to rush in and out the appointment like she didn't care
-
Mar, 26 2024My experience with everyone else in the clinic was wonderful however the MD I worked with spent very little time in the room with me (less than 5 minutes). She had not reviewed any information on my chart before the appt to establish a new PCP. Additionally, she did not talk about any of my history with me. I was very disappointed with this appt as I had waited several months to establish care with a new doctor after mine had left the clinic. I was looking for a new PCP before I had even left the parking lot.
