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.

I would never refer anybody to Dr Kennedy. Worst ever

We Trust No Other Leg and Ankle Surgeon
This man restored my husband's ability to walk after years of misery. Another doctor advised ankle fusion but Dr. Kennedy installed a new ankle. About 6 months later, he successfully replaced a broken hip for husband. Soon he'll replace my knee in a robotically assisted procedure. We couldn't trust a doctor more. And in his office, the support staff is friendly and knowledgeable making for a stellar experience.

DWI wreck
Doctor Kennedy has been nothing short of fantastic in helping my wife regain her mobility after being hit head on by a drunk driver. I could not fathom having any other dr.

I would recommend him to anyone, family or friends
He is such a nice man and he did surgery on my foot to correct a previous surgery by another Dr, very knowledgeable, and kind. Even though I had gone to another Dr, the first time, he didn't even blink an eye, when he saw my problem, very calm. He is top notch in my book.

Wonderful surgeon, excellent support staff
From the initial visit to my last check up, Dr. Kennedy and his staff did an excellent job. I had a total ankle replacement and nine weeks later I was walking on my new ankle. I never had any pain at all from either the surgery or the recovery. He has a well run office and absolutely the best staff. Everyone was friendly and efficient. Just an incredible experience. I would highly recommend his services as a surgeon and his office for continuing follow-up care.

Deceptive business practices
Scheduled an appointment and had imaging done from a referral for services he doesn't even offer. He knew he wasn't going to do anything for me and scheduled anyway so they could bill.

Dr Kennedy recommended and performed fusion of my big toe even though I had no joint pain. He put screws in toes 2 and 3 to repair a hammertoe. After 1 year, my big and second toes go numb and the outside of my foot hurts when I walk. I need a second surgery on the third toe as it is now crossing the 4th toe. I’m not able to wear any shoe comfortably for any length of time. I regret having foot surgery.

I was seen in the emergency room on Christmas Eve for a broken wrist. I was not seen by a doctor but the nurse practitioner put a temporary cast on my wrist and told me to call dr. Kennedy within 3 days because he was the doctor on call. The day after Christmas I called doctor Kennedy's office and was told I could not see him until January 8th. Since I was in so much pain and I saw how bad my wrist was, I made an appointment another orthopedic surgeon and I'm having surgery today, December 31st. I'm very frustrated that Dr. Kennedy put me off for 2 weeks and I'm wondering if he even read my x-rays because it was very obvious that I needed surgery from just the x-rays. It is not good practice to be put off for 2 weeks for something like this even though it was Christmas Eve when it happened. Therefore I'm very displeased with my experience with dr. Kennedy.

My experience was absolutely awful! Unfortunately I ended up with infection after my surgery and he ignored the problem for over 3 months. By the time he decided to take action I had an open wound with exposed bone and tendon in my foot. After 3 surgeries and months of wound care they were able to save my foot and heal my wound. Unfortunately, I will never take a step without pain and the man has never even so much as apologized for the mess that his negligence caused.

We met in June, 2017, when I broke both my arms. I was called the unluckiest. I had the best of care both mentally and physically. Dr Kennedy's attire was one of my very few bright spots. The picture in the Amarillo magazine top docs did not disappoint! He said to never stop the rotator cuff exercise until I had them back. Now I have full use of my arms. Hearing it was possible was all I needed. Thanks to Dr Kennedy for his kindness and support.
