Dr Kiernan has performed surgery on a arm/hand injury and a second due to injury complications. He has shown interest not just in my physical well being but in my total well being. He addressed my early concerns and has walked me thru both processes along with the OV staff. I'm not versed in the medical arena having had very few injuries or illnesses in my life. I highly recommend Dr Kiernan and the folks at OrthoVirginia if you have any need of those kind of services!

Dr. Kiernan is outstanding in every way. He is an excellent communicator and has always tested me with kindness and respect. My first procedure with him was on my elbow in 2007. Not only did it solve a painful problem, but I had the tiniest, thinnest scar imaginable! When I developed a hand issue, there was no way I would even consider another physician. Dr. Kiernan is simply the best!

Dr. Kiernan was great! His staff members were very courteous, thoughtful, and professional during both the office visits and the surgery. Dr. Kiernan was very friendly with myself and my husband. OrthoVirginia was definitely worth the drive from Martinsville.

I had a fantastic experience!! I was quickly diagnosed, scheduled for surgery, and fixed!!!! He is absolutely delightful, funny, and you never feel like you are being rushed out. I have had many orthopedic issues over time, and this was without a doubt the most positive.
