Dr. Kemler is the best! He is so knowledgeable and takes the time to explain, in detail, the procedure being discussed. He takes thorough notes, asks questions to be sure he fully understands your responses, outlines alternate plans of action and gives you time to think, question and reply. HE LISTENS!

I needed to see someone at Dr. Kemler's office for a condition I was experiencing. There were not openings for a few weeks but I was advised I could get on a waiting list should something crop up. Within two days I was called that something opened up and we booked it. Today was the day and I was due in at 11:20 am. I thought it was 1:20 pm!! My heart was racing, however, the staff were so nice and calming and there just happened to be a cancellation later in the afternoon. They grabbed it for me and called me. I have not experienced such professionalism and kindness in quite awhile. I saw the PA there, Angela Delisle and she was just wonderful and calming and we moved forward. Thanks again to all who were involved.

I had my first telemedicine visit with Dr. Kemler yesterday and am very satisfied with the way it went. It seemed to me that the face-to-face interaction on the screen enabled both of us to be focused and efficient. Dr. Kemler asked the questions which enabled me to provide a complete picture of my health issues. He is attentive, pleasant and professional.
