Dr. Joshua P. Kesterson, MD, MD

Sent to Dr.following another doctor finding a tumor on my ovary. Dr.K is very detailed orientated, took the time to explain everything about my condition. I was diagnosed with stage 3 ovarian cancer, had surgery and completed 6 months of chemotherapy. He and his staff are outstanding. He saved my life.

This doctor do to my cousin really bad practic please don't attending with this doctor when he diagnostic he don't tell true now my cousin pass away and she arrived with a stage 2 with Celvica cancer my cousin tell him to remove her womb but he said no please don't trust this doctor is a lot practic and the only interest for this hospital is money only

We only have health insurance at Penn State Hershey Medical Center so to "stay in the network" I went to see him. He was cocky and seemed very hesitant to perform my endometrial surgery which involved the bladder. He did consult with Dr. Harkins but he only does laproscopic surgery and my diagnosis required traditional surgery. I went to Pinnacle for a second opinion and Dr. Willis performed my surgery successfully. He is very patient friendly. Hershey Med should get another GYN/ONC doctor on their staff with Dr. Kesterson's surgery skills without his poor patient skills.

Excellent Doctor. Saved my life. Caring and understanding.

I contacted this office for a 2nd opinion. This particular doctor was not my first choice in this office but he was available. Wait time was 2+ hours before being called into the exam room. I understand that appointments run behind. The nurse who escorted me to the exam room was wearing a mask. I asked her why & she said she had a cold. Not sure why she was even there if she's not healthy. I also asked her how long it would be before the doctor came in. She said shortly. I asked what that meant & she said, in a little while. I told her I understand the definition. I was referring to an approximate length of time, to which she stated 5-10 minutes. A resident came in shortly after who asked questions. When the physician finally came into the exam room he seemed a bit cocky, did not wash or use hand sanitizer before offering to shake my hand. I was a bit reluctant because of that & he questioned me. I explained my concern & he became defensive, asking me several times if I wanted his… help. He apparently does not like questions or being questioned. I was there to get answers & a second opinion regarding surgery. He was narcissistic, arrogant & condescending most of the visit.

He is a great physician plus a warm hearted human being.

This physician is narcissist and arrogant.

A wonderful, wonderful doctor who helped me greatly during a miserable time in my life. (I don't think he knows how good he is!)
