Sam Kirkendall Is a really great Dr. I would HIGHLY recommend anyone to have him as their MD. He’s very patient, very knowledgeable, I like how he gets straight to the point. He’s quick and very respectful. The day I met him for the first time I already had this sense of trust in him. Again. I would HIGHLY recommend Dr.Kirkendall to anyone. 5 stars is underrated.

Very kind, considerate, and highly professional. I came in for a consultation (I thought), but he performed the surgical procedure in less than an hour. I highly recommend him and will go back to him should the need arise.
