I was a patient for 5 yrs and I loved Dr. Kirkwood. He always spent time with me and actually explained and discussed all of my issues; unlike the ones who are in and out in 5 mins. I never saw more than 5 people in his waiting room aand those I did see were ages infant-80 yrs old. Im sure those werent drug addicted people as being said.

Dr. Kirkwood tried alternatives to Xanax and discouraged me from increasing the .5 lorezapan to stronger meds. And he was correct. An outstanding Dr.

I have been a patient of Dr Kirkwood since he graduated from medical school. He has excellent medical knowledge and diagnostic skills and does actually discuses your issues in detail. His office staff at times has not always been the most efficient and there have been problems with some insurance claims. He also needs to update his record keeping system. All in all he is an excellent medical professional.

I have been going to doctor Kirkwood for a few year's now and he is the best doctor i've ever had and all this garbage on here that other people are saying is not true at all.The staff is all very kind and the animals are so sweet and its very nice for them to be in the office to greet people.There is alot of animal lover's in the world and animals will cheer sick people up.I have never had a problem with Dr.Kirkwood or his staff.And it's very sad for people to get on here and put down good people that's there to help the sick.My opion for those who likes to talk down on the doctor and his staff and animals needs to get a life.It's pretty sad for people to go to him and walk out the door and down grade him.

This practice is very busy because Dr. Kirkwood actually talks to the patients and gives them answers to their questions. I have been going for many years and tried diffrent Dr's and he is definately my favorite. The staff is very helpful also.
