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.

De kerns is now and always has been the very best. You won’t find a better Doctor. He’s been my Doctor for over 30 years.

Dr. Kerns is knowledgeable, a nice guy and doesn't rush you. He is one of the few physicians in Hagerstown who will be your physician in the hospital if you get sick. He has taken care of me and my family for many years. I highly recommend him.
