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.

Cares for patient.
Excellent. Very observant and truly cares for patient's best interest. He looks at all parameters of patient's health and does what he can to make improvements. (Needs a better picture.)

Dr. Kennefick is an awesome doctor. He's been my doctor for about 18 years since I was 19. He is so easy to talk to and his explanations are easy to understand. I trust his opinions about everything, from medications to treatment options. He has seen me through my lows and highs and has always been by my side.
