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.

Amazing MD
I was in a car accident in which my vehicle was totaled. As a ER Nurse as a Patient I was beyond terrified. Dr. Kennedy was beyond professional, quick & thankfully I survived A horrible accident. Dr. Kennedy made me laugh and her bedside manner was phenomenal. Thank you Dr. Kennedy!

I was admitted to the ER Pocono and Dr Kennedy was extremely professional while exhibiting compassionate understanding. I felt like my life mattered and that she felt the same. Our medical system needs more like Dr Kennedy and less like robots. I mean no offense to the other hard working people there but it rings true. I am not a numbered piece of meat with insurance. I am a human being. Thank you Dr Kennedy.

Rude and uncompassionate
I had an extremely negative experience with this doctor at East Stroudsburg Hospital ER. She was rude and disrespectful, leaving the room without any explanation and displaying a dismissive attitude toward our situation. She even suggested sending my shivering and vomiting son home without providing proper care. If you encounter her, I strongly recommend requesting a different doctor immediately.

I wish all doctors were as kind and caring as Dr K
I wish all doctors were as kind and caring as Dr Kennedy. I went to the ER at PMC with pain in my lungs from an awful cold for 2weeks. Dr Kennedy was very kind and thoughtful, treated me like a person and not just a number. I appreciated her in all ways. I would definitely recommend Dr Kennedy. Thank you Dr Kennedy

Went to the ER at Lehigh Valley Pocono. Dr. Kennedy was the attending physician. They listened to me and made sure I was taken care of. They ordered the correct testing and referred me to a surgeon.

I went to the ER for extreme pain and anxiety and she was so rude the whole time speaking, she didn't listen at all, and I left the hospital still in excruciating pain.
