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.

Dr. O’Kelly was incredibly personable and listened to my issues and came up with a treatment plan that I felt comfortable with and would help my pain. He followed up to ensure the treatment plan was working and gave me the time needed to ask any questions I had. I’d recommend him to anyone.

My mother went to see him for an acute pain issue. He was very nice to her and told her that he would personally "pick out the right doctor" to help her. 3 business days after the appointment moma called the office to inquire about the recommendation. 5 days later I called the office, left a message. Finally 5 business days after the initial appt they called moma with an appt date - in 2 1/2 weeks. I have left 2 messages - no response. Don't see O'Kelley if you have an acute issue.

I just met him for my referral appointment from my Cheraw,SC physician. Sadly, we did not have a long conversation, as he had a waiting room full of patients to see and was in surgery all morning. I have a procedure to have done by him at the hospital in 2016, but I am unable to talk with the Practice Scheduler to get setup. She will not return my messages. Notified Dr. O'Kelly of this situation by Fax on 1-7-2016 and have not heard from him either. I was hoping this would work out for me.
