    Dr Kennedy was great. I've never had such quality care from a doctor before. You're lucky to have him. I would recommend him to my daughter - that's how good he is.

    I was given a thorough write up for the visit. Dr. Kennedy brilliantly put the next steps plan at the top of the page with a timeline for the future. I am a retired teacher and loved his teaching style.

    Dr Kennedy is the BEST CARDIOLOGIST there is. He is Caring, Very Knowledgeable, Advises of what to do and what not to do. He will go out of his way to help with you with the Situation. I have never had a physical that is so Caring, Honest, Truthful.

    Both Doctors seemed upset, not friendly or no compassion. Seemed over worked and tired must have been a bad day

    Instead of sitting in front of the computer filling blanks and not looking in my direction like many in the past, Dr Kennedy took out a new steno notebook, put a label with my info on the front of it, opened it, and started handwriting notes as he discussed my issue with me. That was my notes, that he would refer to as we moved through my treatment. Impressive. He hand wrote me a note with all my treatment directions and medicine changes that I tucked into my pocket. He began the data entry after my appt was over and the release paperwork was waiting for me as I checked out at the front desk. But I refered to the hand written note from my steno to get everything in order and start my new meds. I usually refuse male drs cause I think they are just cowboys, and always request a female primary (i am male) but Dr Kennedy didnt come across as a cowboy, golf clubs in his trunk, ready to cut out and hit the links. He put a lot of thought into my diagnosis and treatment. Bravo!

    You guys must really read these. Thank you, the Doc was angry, but helpful In getting my test done locally. I'm on my own and It would of been very difficult for me to drive to an area I don't know. Looking for some place I've never been before. Thank you very much
