Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Amazing experience
Dr. Keaveny is easily the most professional, caring and accomplished Doctor I have ever met. My wife and I sat in awe as he walked us through my liver diagnosis. His command of the subject and thorough explanation was presented in great detail and simple to understand layman terms. He was as fascinating as he was educational. Dr. Keaveny is rare gem of a physician that I would highly recommend - truly a gift to medicine. Mayo Clinic should be honored to have him on their staff. Five Stars!

Knowledgeable and Kind
We drive 5 hrs from GA so that I can be seen and treated by Dr. Keaveney and will continue to do so as long as possible. He is truly a doctor I feel confident in and I appreciate his manner of explaining things to me in clear detail. I have never felt rushed or uncared for. I feel very fortunate to call him my doctor.

Dr. Keaveny looked over my records thoroughly, listened to me carefully, explained everything very well and did his own quite thorough physical exam, including the blood pressure. He performed a scanning test himself because the ultrasound tech was at lunch. He was very respectful of me and my time. He didn't talk down to me or talk over my head. He basically was an excellent doctor in every way. Well worth driving 70 miles to see.
