I am increasingly impressed with my new LOS doctor, Dr Kimbrel. He listened and his discussion helped me decide about best scheduling my knee surgery around my other obligations.
Dr. Kimbrel was very knowledgeable and sure with his diagnosis of my knee issues and had a plan of treatment ready for discussion. I am very satisfied with his care and concern for my wellbeing.
Oh my goodness! I was so incredibly satisfied with my first visit with Dr. Kimbrel! He was so compassionate, comforting, and very personable, making me feel so relaxed. He was very professional…..explaining to me everything going on with my knee and I was very relieved. I would definitely recommend Dr. Brandon Kimbrel to anyone looking for an orthopedic doctor.
It was my first meeting with Dr Kimbrel and I was highly impressed. He answered all the questions I could think of didn’t push a surgery! Had a good idea what is issue was and recommended therapy. Great job Doc! Pleasure meeting you
