Very kms and patient
Great Dr. in all aspects.
Dr. Kearney is very knowledgeable in his field. He listens to what I have to say and offers options for me to consider when making decisions about my health needs..
Dr Kearney was helpful, explained my kneee issues, and gave me hope for my future! I’m grateful for his explanations to help me understand the overall picture and what to do next. He was professional and caring.
Dr. Kearney is a great guy. Very professional and takes the time to go over results or what the next steps would be in my care. Very thorough and explains so you understand what is going on and detailed in his explanation. Definitely recommend him to others.
Took the time to listen to me.
Dr Kearney was personable, calm and explained everything as he worked on my shoulder. The procedure was quick and after he demonstrated exercises that I should do. This was helpful because reading “how to” is less effective than seeing exercises done. The staff on arrival was efficient and friendly, and calm which was reassuring during my procedure.
Very caring dr
Always listens and takes the time with me. He is professional and makes me most comfortable.
Thoughtful, takes time to explain and very patient. He continues to help me with my complicated body/bone issues. Marvelous doctor.
