Dr. Kavelman is my primary care provider. He's great!... the woman at the front during check-in though, meh; she's not that friendly and seems annoyed to be at work. I've never had a problem with my appointments though, I do mostly everything through the patient portal though.

Dr. Kavelman has been my family doctor for over 20 years. Unfortunately CRH has driven him away and now he is going to Franklin. Johnson Memorial is lucky to get him. So many people have lost a great family doctor. Thanks a bunch CRH. You really did a foolish thing. I will be leaving CRH as soon as I can!

I love Dr. Kavelman, always have, been seeing him over 20 years now. His office, they are nice, but . . . they don't exactly answer the phones very promptly. May say they open a certain time but 15, 20 min. later, maybe they'll answer the phone. Call in a prescription. they might get it right. The next day . . . and it may go to the wrong place. Attention to detail is a little fuzzy sometimes. Just saying. When it comes to your health, follow up, again & again, a lot!!!

He is a doctor who actually takes his time with you and listens. Addressed a problem had for years but no one else helped. I am feeling 100% better and on way to full recovery.

Dr Kavelman is a excellent Doctor very caring and listens to your needs. My problem has been getting a appointment. Amber is the most heartless person I have ever met. You don't call a dr office and ask for an appointment if your not sick. Kellie and Patty are the best employees in that office!! I like Kavelman but you can never get into seeing him.

I can not say enough good things about Dr Kavelman. I have been a patient of his since I moved to Indiana. so around 10+ years. Never had a bad experience. He is friendly, he listens to what you have to say, he talks to you like a regular person, not down to you like alot of doctors. He genuinely cares about you. he will try to make you smile and laugh, no one likes doctors, he tries to ease some of that. Again not enough good things can be said about Dr. Kavelman.
