I'm so tired of leaving this office in tears. Dr Kenner is possibly one of the least compassionate doctors I've seen and I'll be switching from her practice immediately. I would expect a little kindness and compassion over missing an appointment due to a life changing auto accident. Despite the fact that I called, while dying in a hospital, to let them know what was up it was somehow still on ME that they didn't direct me to a phone consultation with her.
She reprimanded and shamed me in my appointment for not seeking treatment, while I was recovering from TWO broken legs, TWO broken wrists, an awful concussion and so many wounds. She has absolutely no compassion and doesn't listen. She made it very clear she was angry about having to restart my treatment, and the stress that puts on her, as if it's not her job. I didn't ask for a near death experience. If you see anyone at this practice, let it be Dr Barfield. He is wonderful, kind, compassionate and knowledgeable unlike DR Kenner.

This is the best OBGYN by far. There isn't a person in this practice that isn't respectful and kind. This is my second pregnancy with this office and it was even smoother this time around than the first. The nurses are always so welcoming and my preferred OB Dr. Staci Kenner is the best! She always makes me feel like she's talking to a friend and so accommodating to everything thrown at her. This office makes you see every Dr/Midwife incase your preferred dr is not on call at the time, and there isn't a dr/midwife that I would be upset about having. They're all just great. So thankful for this office.

I have been going to Dr. Barfield for a few years now, and I have never felt so relaxed at the OBGYN. He ensures that you feel comfortable in the office and is ready to solve any problem or answer any question you come in with. I would highly recommend him and this practice!
