Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

The very best!
I had the same doctor for thirty years before moving to Riverhead. Changing was difficult, but once I met Dr.Kitt, I never looked back. She is amazing! Not only an excellent medical professional, but kind and caring. I have referred many friends to her and they feel the same way. She is also very efficient with referrals and RX refills.

Dr. Kitt is the best Dr. I’ve ever had. She is very caring and takes her time and listens to you. Dr. Kitt is not an alarmist and anything she has to tell you is done in a calm manner. She goes out of her way to be sure to be available. I see her in the Islip office but would drive to the Riverhead if need be. Dr. Kitt is very patient.

I have some excellent doctors here in Simpsonville, SC, but I still miss Dr. Kitt. She is one of the finest doctors I have ever come across. She is kind and patient and does her best to keep you well informed about whatever your problem is and how it can be improved. She takes her time with you. You never feel like you have been rushed out of her office. So I do miss her. I haven't done it, but many a time I have wanted to give her a call and ask her advice.

Dr. Kitt is an extremely excellent diagnostician and a professional friend. She can take one look at you and can tell you how you feel. Now that's a gift. I used to be on antibiotics once a month every month with my old doctor. I barely go on antibiotics in a year. Just your routine bronchitis a few times a year. Dr. Kitt is a compassionate person. Her smile makes a dreary day turn into one with hope and sunshine! ??

Not very organized- I think the Norwell Group is too large as they have difficulty handling easy tasks that make patients lives easier...like sending in authorizations for surgeries...should be an easy thing...other than that she was great but unfortunately these tasks have huge effects for people as deductibles are a big issue with timing of procedures...now i have to wait another year to have a necessary procedure...sucks
