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.

One of a kind doctor. Really cares, takes his time and gets to know you as a patient, not just one condition at a time. I am a long-term patient and have never experienced such consistent genuine care and concern.

His bed side manners are impeccable. He's knowledgeable and ready to assist as he places your mind at ease. He listens intently to every word your able to convey. He builds you up to address whatever diagnosis you receive. I'm not an insurance card or a MR# in his eyes. I'm viewed as a person with a need of assistance and Dr. Kempf is ready to oblige. I've been working in the health care field for over 30 years and I am proud to say "I'm blessed to have him as a primary care physician".
