Dr. Kirkendall was very nice and professional. It was a pleasure to meet him and I felt confident that he had my best interest at heart and saw me as a person, not just a number.

Dr. is very nice, I was very impressed with his kindness and he was very thorough describing the procedure. He did not rush through the appointment or seem in a big hurry. Some Drs seem very rushed, uninformed about your chart information but not Dr. Kirkendall. However, he has one staff at the front desk who is rather a smart-mouth and I find her p.R. skills very lacking. She did act as if she thought she was better and talked over me while I was speaking. I left a magazine there and when I CALLED THEM to save it for me they said they would. It took me a while to go get it as I live in Borger and don't go to Amarillo often. She threw it away before I got there. She told me "we are not babysitters" well, I did NOT leave my children!! A magazine requires no maintenance and it was a 20.00 magazine. I didn't mind so much it having been discarded as I did with her attitude. Even though I have insurance, it's my money that will help pay her salary!!
