Friendly and always listens to my concerns
Dr. Kearns is by far the BEST PCP I have ever had. I always feel heard and that she truly cares about my health and wellbeing. I actually feel like a partner in improving my health and that is more appreciated than you know. In my professional work, it is my job to study health equity, health disparities and the provider experience among minority populations so I am extra sensitive to the quality and dynamics of the patient experience and the provider patient relationship as it relates to health outcomes. Dr. Kearns was recommended to me by a family friend. I was so impressed and am so happy with the way she cares for me, my whole family now sees her.
My Dr. and her staff are amazing. I wouldn't change a thing.
She makes me feel like she cares about me and my well being. I believe I am getting the very best of care.
