Dr. Folsom was absolutely amazing! She was very detailed in her explanations, even discussing everything in ways that my child could understand and was interested. She made my child feel seen and heard from the moment she stepped in the room. Phenomenal physician.

This being my first appointment, unfortunately Dr. Folsom and the surrounding endocrinology team have not had a chance to show their effectiveness of their long term care. However, as far as first impressions go, I can't imagine a better experience entering the office for the healthcare I sought, especially with the stigmas surrounding it. I could hardly sleep the night before, and yet, my worries evaporated the second I stepped into the room, and I was comfortable, felt heard and respected, and given just enough of a peek to know that Dr. Folsom's practice is incredibly deliberate, evidence based, and considerate of the needs of her patients.
