Dr. Joshua Kennedy is truly one of the best, most competent, compassionate, warm and friendly doctors Ive ever seen, and Ive seen MANY. As a matter of fact, not just doctors, but he's one of the best people I've ever met. He clearly cares VERY MUCH about his patients, their health and well being in general. He clearly knows and owns his part in their journeys toward wellness. He Is eager to learn, and grow, and actively seeks answers without ego! I hope he gets promoted to the highest level. He deserves the best, because he gives the best.
