He seemed nice the first time I went to him. But my next couple of visits, he gave me prescription medicine that did Not cure me from sinus infection. The last visit i went to Dr kershner he purposely misdiagnosed me again as I have been suffering severe pains due to an injury that left me with chronic nerve pain. The pain medicine he prescribed for me, again did Nothing. He wants blood work and will not schedule appointments for me until he gets the lab results. In the meantime I am still suffering nail raking nerve pain. I'm angry that as my physician Dr kershner has become so uncaring to my consistent medical pains and symptoms. I'm forced to find a new physician.

I have been extremely blessed to have Dr. Kershner as my primary care physician. He has provided me with outstanding health care. He is very personable and patient care is second to none. Help me through difficult times. Didn't feel rushed through exams and he took time to explain a multitude of health conditions and treatment options necessary to get me back on my feet. He also places patient care as number 1 when referring you to specialist needed to address your medical concerns. He's the best!!!!

I have been a patient of Dr. Kershner for several years now. He is always thorough and compassionate. However, he has been especially invaluable these past two years as I have struggled with a sudden and recurring condition. I highly recommend him!

Excellent physician, but some of the staff can be a little snippy and condescending over the phone. Make sure you get a name if this happens and report them. My only problem is sometimes when I am put on a new med my follow up visit may not be for 3 months, which concerns me especially when it's a hypertension med and my readings are high. Overall I would definitely recommend him and have recommended him to others.

Can be nice when he wants to be, but sometimes a very sarcastic jerk. Does not know what he's talking about.
