National Jewish Health Patient – March, 2025
I like seeing Dr. Restrepo. She is kind and very understanding. She always spends the necessary time with me catching up on my other doctor appointment as well as my concerns. She has recommended blood tests that my other doctors have not ordered. During my last visit we talked about a medication another doctor had put me on. She said that the medication that I was put on could cause kidney stones and I needed further blood work which she ordered. I look forward to seeing her and I trust her knowledge and expertise.
