Patients should feel heard, understood and involved in their treatment decisions. I believe taking time to educate patients about their skin condition, treatment options and preventative measures are essential for empowering them to take control of their own health.

Went in for full body check. Previously, she had a biopsy done on a place on my face that no other doctor was concerned about. Now I have great respect for her. I have had a great experience each time I have seen her.

20 minutes of paperwork to fill out: Lots of liability waivers and disclaimers to acknowledge, which I was invited to complete on-line prior to my appointment (I didn’t, as I’ve been a patient of this practice for many years). One minute with the nurse then 2 minutes with the Dermatologist to take biopsy of a spot on my head. Dr. Kennedy seems like a nice person and competent doctor, but I don’t appreciate the fact that they only call you back with biopsy results if the sample shows positive for cancer, otherwise, “no news is good news”. They can’t take 2 minutes to call me and tell me if the biopsy is negative for cancer?

Dr. Kennedy and her team are exceptional! Knowledgeable and personable but most importantly she and her team made me very comfortable and relaxed for my first mohs surgery - two places on my face. I get all the stitches out next week and I hear that Dr. Kennedy’s ability to minimize scarring is like no other. I have full confidence in her and am grateful for her skills.

I arrived a little early and was seen almost immediately. Dr Kennedy is thorough and friendly. 6 months ago she removed a basal cell so this was both a follow-up and a full body check up. I was very happy with the facility, the staff, and Dr Kennedy.

Dr. Kennedy is friendly, kind and thorough. I see her twice a year for skins checks. She has also suggested something to help with my hormonal hair loss. I would definitely recommend her if you are looking for a dermatologist.

Dr. Kennedy performed Mohs surgery on my nose and it was very successful. I appreciated the fact that she and all those assisting her listened to my every question and concern. They are very caring and made me feel comfortable the entire time.

So I had my annual skin check with Dr. Kennedy. I was asked to go in the room, strip down and wear my paper washcloth like a shield of armor. Dr. Kennedy walked in with a very knowledgeable assistant. Being the medical detectives that they are, they scoured every inch of my body to find cancerous demons that could invade it. She identified two sources on my rugged face! As she burned them off the tears formed in my eyes. After they were frozen off, she continued her investigation on my backside! 🤦🏻‍♂️I was given another “all clear for another year” and I was silently relieved that I could now put on my clothes, walk out with what was left of my dignity on a cold Monday morning!! These ladies save lives! I am happy to tell everyone they are saving mine….every naked and afraid year!
