Dr. Kerns is a very good listener, I'm so used to doctors that don't listen to me/brush me off but he did a thorough exam and explained everything he was doing, and actually gave me a follow up plan instead of "well idk what's wrong" because the issue wasn't apparent

Dr. Kerns noticed my daughter was extremely anxious and nervous, he assured her that he would not do anything without explained what he was about to do first. He gave her time to calm down, talked to her, and did an amazing job at answering all my questions. I was very impressed at how caring he was towards her and not rushing us. Amazing doctor!!!! And nurse and receptionist I talked to when making the appointment were sweet and very empathetic towards our situation. Got us in within a week.

I went to Dr.Kerns, to be established as a new patient. It was a good experience. When checking my ears, he said that there was wax in my right ear & he asked if I would like it removed. I said yes, so he gently did the procedure. I also explained that I have had sinus infections & sore throat issues usually in the winter months. He listened to me& had a caring attitude.
Absolutely love, Dr. Kerns, and his staff! They're always very kind and concerned about any issue or concern that I may have.
Doc was very good
Dr. Kerns was very good, answered all my questions. I was impressed by his level of care.
I had an urgent situation that was too big for urgent care and too small for the ER. Dr. Kerns squeezed me into his schedule and 2 more times for follow-ups to check my progress. Dr. Kerns was so kind, a excellent listener, collaborative provider, who made sure I thoroughly understood what was happening and educated me regarding my choices. This is the perfect doctor model in my book. I really felt like he genuinely cared about giving me his best care. I am so grateful.
Dr Kerns is a very caring and concerned physician. He was very thorough in his examination of me and he explained why he was checking things. I would recommend Dr Kerns to anyone wholeheartedly.
I have had chronic ENT-related issues throughout my life and (as such) have seen a lot of different ENT specialists over the years. Many of them very good. Dr. Kerns is absolutely the best ENT I've ever had. I have recommended and will continue to recommend him to family and friends.
