Dr. Kessler has retired as of the end of December, 2014. I am so sorry to see him go, though I can't begrudge him some enjoyment years. He was the best doctor I ever met and I always thought if I were ill in the hospital, his is the face I'd want to see bedside. I wish him well. CJK

I made an appointment with Dr. Kessler's staff a month ago based an emergency room visit. Two hours before the appointment, the office staff calls and cancels the appointment. Dr. Kessler is not taking new patients. Their policy is to charge $50 with less than 24 hour notice. Where is my $50 for THEM cancelling?? Extremely unprofessional. I have responsibilities at my work as well, and taking time off is a big deal for me. NEVER EVER go to this place. INNOVA or Dr. Kessler.
