Excellent Provider !
SHC Patient, Apr 2015
Dr. Kathleen Kenny exemplifies excellence in a primary care physician. Her compassion and commitment to this patient (me) has been phenomenal. She takes time to explain things, to ask pertinent questions and to examine to make certain that all information is provided. Her follow-through after the appt. is very good. I have nothing but respect and admiration for this physician and for all she has done for me as her patient. If there were more physicians like Dr. Kathleen Kenny, the world would be a much better place!!!
