What Kathy Mulford’s Patients Have to Say…
To TOA Administration: After recently reading a review on your website about Kathy Mulford I felt the need to respond. I am a patient of Ms Mulford and have been always treated with great respect when I have seen her in the office. She is very professional, listens to my concerns and has cared for me with care and understanding. It is very disturbing to see these comments and hope you will consider removing them from your website. Ms Mulford certainly does not deserve this. I don’t know how to put comments on your website so I hope you will accept my comments in writing. -- Mary L.

We benefitted greatly from your presentation… I hope your experience was enjoyable and I look forward to working with you again. Sincerely -- Susan Cooper RT CBDT, Greater Baltimore Medical Center, DXA Services
