I love my doctor at Shoshone Medical Center ( Dr. K. Kuipers). She is kind, caring, and genuinely listens to me. The clinic in Smelterville is always clean, neat, and tidy. The staff is welcoming and very friendly. I rate my medical care as excellent!
I went in thru the er, due to pneumonia. I was very sick, but every person that took care of me went above and beyond the normal care. The nurses were so kind and answered my questions. They knew I was scared but yet the did everything they could to give me peace. The assistant’s were so helpful and quick when I needed help. Thank you to all of the staff for great care.
