Patient Reviews
Jun 12, 2021
My visits to Dr. Kistler's office have always been pleasurable, educational, and non-confrontational with his office staff. I have enjoyed my years under his medical care and have no desire to search for another PCP. I have read some reviews here complaining that Dr. K will not proscribe their desired non-FDA approved drugs - and they might have a favorite that perhaps has been used (often successfully) for 100s (or even 1000s) of years, yet the FDA does not "approve" it. It is accurate and correct to be reminded that God, in creating a "perfect" world, left that world with all the products man would need for their healing growing in the ground or in the waters surrounding the land. Most trained MDs are essentially taught to only prescribe drugs approved by the FEDERAL DRUG ADMINISTRATION. But many of our illnesses now, some human caused and propagated, require more complex formulas than what grows in the land or the sea. Be patient, present your desires, and talk with Dr. Kistler.
