He’s a great doctor who cares about what you’re feeling and how to make you feel better. He shows concern 😕. I just don’t see him enough. Obviously he’s pretty busy! That’s a good sign 👍👍

Good experience

He was great. He actually listened to me and talked to me. The annual medicare exam is usually "Hello, how are you? "Good" "Any questions?" "No" Ok continue taking the medication" I feel confident I have a good doctor I can trust.

He is great! He always answers my questions, or finds the answers to my questions. He is very easy to talk to and he seems to really care about his patients.

He was personable and reasonably thorough. He did seem to wrap up the visit very quickly toward the end, shook my hand, and left me in the room. I wasn't told whether I should find my way out or should wait for someone to escort me out.

Dr McKenna is energetic and very helpful. He explains things thoroughly so it is easy to understand. Sometimes, though, he goes so fast, I wonder if he has heard me. But if I ask he's very happy to cover the same ground again.
