Great doctor and help with understanding my arm
Professional, polite, takes time to listen
My surgery was smooth and recovery was pain-free.
Dr Kearney really cares and listens. He is an excellent orthopedic.
Great dr. Very helpful for my condition.
Met Dr Kearney today for the first time and by his professionalism & care, I am pleased to know that he will be performing my Tenex procedure. Looking forward to his expertism.
Appreciated his time that he took with me to explain the diagnosis and the treatment.
He is so easy to talk to and yet so professional. Talks to you in simple terms so you can easily understand what he’s saying. Enjoy talking to him and feel he is the Dr for me and my problems.
Not only helped me with the foot problem I came in for, but also cared enough to address and help me through the death of my fiancée.
Dr. Kearney gives you 100% of his time during your visit. Never feel rushed which is NOT the case with many doctors.
