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.

Over 30 years
Dr. Kirchner has been my physician for over 30 years and I highly recommend her! She is very knowledgeable, explains thing.s well, listens to my aches, pains and feelings. Her diagnoses are spot-on. She remembers everything about me and my conditions and has referred me to top-notch specialists. Never wait more than a few minutes, as she does not overbook.

Just another Patient
Dr Kirchner is the best. Old school doctor/Real medicine. She cares and her staff cares. They all go above and beyond. Appointments are easy to get and your appointment is at the time you made it for.

I received a call from Dr Kershner’s office to schedule an appointment, and I did but then called back so my wife could also schedule her appointment. The receptionist was horrible & hung up on me when I asked to schedule our appointments together. I called back several times, left messages & got no answer. My wife then called and left a message for the office manager & or the Dr to call her, my wife is still waiting for a return call. I’ve been going there for over 5 years, my wife has been a patient there for over 25 years . Dr Kershner is a good Dr, but her staff is the WORST!!!!!!!! And there’s no way Dr. Kershner doesn’t know this. We have decided to go elsewhere, somewhere, where you don’t dread to call your doctor, especially when your not feeling well and be mistreated by a receptionist or an office manager. Good luck to them. They will need it. Jorge Y

After my first visit I was sold on her style. She is warm and compassionate, and not pushy. Her staff, especially Shantrelle, is competent and capable. She has a broad base of medical knowledge but she doesn't force her ideas on a reluctant patient - which I am. She has an interest in finding the best outcome for her patients.

My husband and I have been seeing dr Kirchner for almost 15 years. She is by far the best doctor we’ve had ever. She is a wonderful diagnostician and a careful listener. When you walk into her exam room you can tell she has been reviewing everything about you. How many doctors do that? The staff is great too.

I am very disappointed, I was advised yesterday, that Dr. Kirchner no longer wanted me for a patient because I only come once a year for my physical. I was not given any option on coming in more frequent, I was only advised to find someone else to go to. I am sadden on how I was treated and I was denied to speak to the Doctor.

Dr K has been my Doctor since 2000. She is the best Dr. I ever had and I am 70 years of age. She is the brightest Dr and one of the most caring people I ever met. I now live in Stuart, Fl over 115 miles away and DR K is still my Doctor. Thanks DR K from Dennis Samberg

I am so disappointed with Dr Kirchner's office. I called for a same day appointment as per my emergency room discharge paper that stated to see a doctor if certain symptoms continued. I was told that I am no longer a patient in this office because I never come for a physical, the receptionist said that physicals are mandatory by law. My health issues were never discussed, I was not referred to another doctor nor to the emergency room. I was dropped like an old sock sick and all...

Dr. Kirchner is great. However, her staff is not. I have had so many issues with her office manager, that I finally called it quits after 5 years. The office manager has lectured me over the phone multiple times. She once scolded me for the inconvenience of my insurance provider, when I was only calling to inform them that I had broken a bone (in case they needed to put it in my chart). It's too bad because Dr. Kirchner is very professional and caring doctor.

I went to Dr. Kirchner on the recommendation of a friend after a blood pressure related hospitalization. I had not had a physical in 5 years. I told her I avoided doctors at all cost after a lengthy battle with breast cancer. My first hint that she was not the right fit was when I had a physical but wasn't asked to remove ANY clothing. For any problem I told her about, I got a referral. I walked out with 5 referrals and started calling her the doctor who cures nothing.
