This office is a model office for other practices to follow. It's like an old time medical practice, which functions like a well oiled machine, unlike a lot of the new practices where you have to go through bureaucracy just to get someone to answer a question.

Good communication with the Provider!

06/04/2023

Dr. Kelly is wonderful. His staff is just as wonderful. The nurse who took my information & gave me an EKG, was very professional & at the same time, she was very warm & welcoming. I wish all doctors & their nurses were as welcoming & professional. It's so much better for the patient if they are greeted with a smile--and not just a fake smile! Dr. Kelly & the nurse greeted me with a genuine smile. It's so much more relaxing fir the patient. I have found that if you greet a person with a genuine smile, they relax & feel good and you feel good, too.
