Dr. Kennedy was extremely caring and empathetic, very knowledgeable, did not seem to mind my questions and answered them as best he could, was very honest and I felt extremely pleased and in good hands with being in his care moving forward trying to find a diagnosis. I left there feeling better than I have in a long time with my appointment. Thank you.

Dr. Kennedy sits next to you, listens carefully. He knew my history and meds WITHOUT looking at a computer in my presence. His bedside manner is a lost art.

Other than the fact that I show up in the system as a new patient when I had seen Dr Kennedy just 6 months earlier every thing was as great as usual.

This was one of my best appts ever at UAMS. I always have great experiences but Dr. Kennedy and his staff are the best! They totally engaged with me, listened to me, asked questions, let me ask questions, explained everything in detail, and ran the tests they knew I could afford. Presently, they are checking with [INSURANCE] about billing for future allergy tests, in case I need them, so I will know what I can (or cannot) afford down the road. That's only if all the suggestions Dr. Kennedy gave me to try don't work. I'm confident they will but I still might want to know what environmental things I'm allergic to if they find out [INSURANCE] price isn't outrageous. I really appreciate them taking the time to do that for me. From check-in, the nurse's workup, meeting with Dr. [NAME](Fellow), the medical student and Dr. Kennedy, to check-out, everyone gets an A+ from me! My appt was a pleasure!

Dr. Joshua Kennedy and his staff are always wonderful. He goes above and beyond what other doctors have done in my past experience. He is knowledgeable about my semi-rare condition and I love how he takes him take and explains everything to me.

There was no communications with a nurse. The nurse weighed me and took my vitals. Did not ask any medical questions. I met with Dr. [NAME] and Dr. Kennedy.
