The care she provides is based on a foundation of compassion, respect, and trust.

Kristen is a licensed, independent health care provider with prescriptive authority. Her practice is unique in that she has no employees. "I do everything from checking patients in, to checking patients out, and everything in between." She has found this allows for more privacy, efficiency, and time during appointments.

Kristen has been board certified by the American Midwifery Certification Board since 2016, and is excited to grow her practice. She was born and raised in DownEast, Maine and is happy to be serving women in this area. "I feel I connect so well with women in this area because I grew up here. The women are hard working, down to earth, and inspire me everyday." Anchored Women's Health is in-network with most major health insurance companies.
