Hardly any waiting. Quick xray and diagnosis. Effective treatment. I am thrilled to have found this place and this doc and this PA. Obviously hope not to need to return, but if need be I’ll be there. Thanks to all of you at this nice facility.

Dr. Kerner has treated both me & my husband. Including surgery in 2020 for me. He is a very knowledgable, caring Doctor. We would highly recommend him. In addition to his medical knowledge & abilities being outstanding, his personality is also very caring, & laid back with a great sense of humor too.

I waited almost 45 minutes to see Dr. Kerner for a knee problem. He did not provide any feedback on the xrays his office took. He spent less than 1 minute in the exam to tell me I had a torn meniscus. He did not discuss any plan of action other than to get an MRI.
