Patient Reviews
Aug 08, 2017
I worked for Dr. Karen for 12 years in Kirksville when she closed her practice 1 year ago but I also was a patient of hers. I still feel she is the best Doctor that is practicing in the health care system. She loves her patient's and treats everyone as if they are family. She and her husband are still the best OMT docs around. Everyone needs a Doctor that listens and cares and she is the Doctor for you and your family. You will not be disappointed.
