Dr. Kevin has been nothing but professional during each of our visits. I would highly recommend him to anyone. He has always made me feel more comfortable and we have established a good patient/doctor relationship.

I appreciated the doctor encouraging my dad to quit smoking, but also understanding that he has been smoking for over 50 years and just is not going to do that. He didn't have unrealistic expectations that my dad was just going to all of a sudden quit.

The doctors (1 fellow who captured info initially and 1 fully trained specialist who spent the most time with me) were very thorough and helpful, collecting and conveying information in detail in a way I could understand. The main doctor was very patient with my questions and grief reaction to some negative health news he was confirming (he was a second opinion for me, to be sure there was truly nothing else I could do about recently impaired vision). I was hoping for a different answer from this visit, but his kind, informative candor was the best I could hope for when being given bad news. I appreciated his depth of explanation and honesty, while still being compassionate. Would highly recommend this doctor to anyone.

While there are no effective treatments for my AMD, Dr. Ferenchak has always been most informative about the course of sight loss and is always up to date on research into my problem. He referred me to a "low vision" specialist for possible assistance in reading and computer glasses prescriptions.

He did not take the time to talk to me about making a change to my injection medication due to increase in cost to a new med. I had called weeks earlier for someone to talk to him about it before this appointment. I mentioned my concern to the staff nurse when I arrived to make sure my meds for this appointment were back to the old med and she was the one that mentioned it was. He came in and had an attitude, maybe because he was late, and lectured me about my condition instead for which I told him I was managing it with another doctor who has told me that I am. Based on today's visit I may consider other options and doctors for my eye care. I have never had a bad experience with the ophthalmologists here until recently.
