Dr Kimbrel is amazing. He made me and my son feel like he has known us for years. He explains everything to my 16 year old and breaks it down for him to understand. With Dr Kimbrel being a former athlete himself he can relate to my son. His medical assistant Ashlyn is so welcoming and bubbly. She is always working so hard! They make a great team!
Great visit
