Love him! Always quick and friendly. Answers any and all questions I have.
Dr Jernigan is very friendly, helpful, and easy to talk to.
Best pediatrician we've ever seen!
Absolutely amazing doctor, truly cares about his patients. Listens to parents concerns and talks with you, not at you! So good with kids too, he made my son feel very comfortable in a situation that would usually be uncomfortable for him. Could not recommend enough!
He is amazing and really shows concern and help in my daughters well being and very helpful.
The only fault with Dr. Jernigan is that he only sees pediatrics! I would establish my whole family with him ASAP if he did Family Medicine. Absolutely one of the best providers around - and we are blessed he is accessible to us through KidzCare! Thank you, Dr. J!
Professional, took time to go over concerns, treated us like people and thorough with making sure all concerns were addressed.
Very personable and answered all my questions about our newborn!
Dr. Jernigan has been our favorite doctor at KidzCare. He always listens to hear and understand your concerns. We always leave the office feeling heard and with a plan moving forward. Trust my kids health and wellbeing with him and plan to stay at KidzCare as long as he is there!
Very nice and listens to what you say. I like him a lot
