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.

He did his research, was very caring and kind
I am 71 years old. Dr. Palys, is one of the best doctors I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. He treated my son. Before he started treatment he searched his medical records and even Google. He truly cared and took his time... if they had a Ten star rating he would get all ten of them

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Palys?
Found Dr Kenneth Palys thru an ER visit for family member. He is the BEST Emergency Medicine Doctor's I have have ever known. He looked beyond the current issue and evaluated the patient's physical activities, patient has ran 38 half marathons. Dr Palys looked beyond the patient's age and ordered several test. He spent so much time explaining his diagnosis and making sure we understood what to expect. Within a few hours patient showed signs of improvement. Lynchburg is BLESSED to have Dr palys
