Dr. Kenney is a wonderful doctor. He not only listens to his patients but he works with the patients to develop an action plan that fits their lifestyle. He always gives you all the options and helps you weigh the pros and cons. Exceptional doctor who I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending to anyone.

Haven’t spent this much time with a doctor since I was treated in Mexico. Very thorough, kind and considerate. A rare breed amongst professionals that always come across above their patients.

Dr. Kenney is a wonderful physician who cares about his patients. The triage staff, however, is a different story. They make a patient feel very ignorant and are not friendly at all.
