I really loved Dr Kemp...he took the time to explain everything to me which was important because I was really nervous..he also had a little humor too. My eyes are great..I checked out a lot of Dr s before selecting him..I highly recommend him.

Dr. Kemp pressed his ungloved, unwashed, fingertips into my tearducts to demonstrate how to hold my fingers after using eyedrops. His hands had touched at least the paper files, the doorknob, his keyboard, mouse and other instruments in front of me. He bragged that HE never gets sick ??. IT IS FLU SEASON. Doctors know that viruses are spread from hand to eyes. Get CLEANER, Dr. Kemp!

DR.KEMP was very thorough in his examination and contrary to many of his colleagues treated me as a person and not two eyes suspended in space !

I called and the woman scheduler said he'd be available in four months. I said, "no thank you, I don't want to start with a doctor that is that busy." She replied, "glaucoma is a slow progressing disease, four months won't matter". It matters to me! Every bit of vision that disappears without treatment NEVER comes back. (jerk) I called another doctor, and I am glad I did.
