Patient Reviews
Jun 26, 2020
I have been under Dr Kerner’s care for about 15 years and other than having to wait to see her when I show up for an appt for greater than 2 hours for most appts I am very happy with her. She does a thorough exam and explains the status of my Glaucoma very well. She is also very apologetic about the wait and compassionate. As a Glaucoma specialist I understand that she may be called away to help answer calls from interns. Thank you.
