Recently had a hernia repaired by Dr. Mckenna. Surgery and follow-up were excellent. Dr. Mckenna is friendly, personable, and explains things clearly. His staff is friendly and knowledgeable. I would highly recommend him to anyone seeking a general surgeon.

Not only Doctor McKenna, but his entire staff is amazing. I had gastric sleeve surgery 2014 have had great success with the tool he has given me. In 2014 I would have complained about wait in waiting room and that has improved 100%. I have nothing negative to say about this doctor and his excellent staff. Have referred other friends and they feel the same!!

I had 2 separate surgeries, during the same year, both with very positive outcomes. Excellent care from Dr McKenna and Teri O'Neil NP. The office staff was helpful and polite.

His congeniality and thoroughness in explain- ing the various procedures give you reassurance that everything will be all right.Everything was great when I had my surgery. My surgery was a year and 3 months ago and I am so glad I had the sleeve performed.

I have been a patient of Dr. McKenna's for 8 years. He is outstanding! He is attentive to the needs of the patient, kind, caring and compassionate. He is one of the most caring and honest Doctors I have dealt with. I highly recommend him if you are thinking of a Bariatric procedure.
