    How was your appointment with Dr. Kinnett?

    Feb 02, 2018
    Excellent gentleman and physician.... Dr. Kinnett has done two surgeries on my hands. I expect to be having another soon. I really appreciate the care and consideration--and respect Dr. Kinnett displays. Despite the physical problems I have had with my fingers-I always leave his office feeling optimistic and looking forward to being out of pain. Previously, I went to another doctor here and was very disappointed in the treatment I received overall. Fortunately, I found Dr. Kinnett.
