Dr. Adam Kennah, MD

He should not work at Union hospital. Spent about 1.5 minutes in the room with me “assessing” me push on my stomach three times and spoke about 8 words to me. Was in serious pain, was told eh you just have cramps just take ibuprofen. When told I had already taken ibuprofen and that my cramps always go away with ibuprofen and heating pad that this pain was not that and wasn’t even in the same location dismissed me. Tried to do an immediate discharge saying everything was good and clear when he literally didn’t even run a single test to know if everything was clear. I asked for basic tests to be run to rule out apendicitis or anything like that. The nurse was absolutely amazing and even looked concerned when I told her he said he was sending me home to just take ibuprofen. The biggest red flag your nurse looks concerned and your doctor is not communicating with your nurse. Even with a 4.5 hour visit the doctor was in the room with me for quite literally 4 minutes in total. Terrible care.

2 E.R. visits to this doctor have left us more worried than when we arrived. A serious medical condition that needs appropriate, acute medical attention has been treated with an initial screening and immediate discharge, twice. Other doctors (in the same exact E.R.) that have seen to the same emergent medical needs have done serious screenings alongside hours-long observations and treatments (They were confident and professional. They communicated with the patient and allowed them to advocate for themselves). This doctor had a bad attitude, and seemed to become careless and impatient when stressed. Despite serious concerns from the patient for their well-being, the doctor pushed them out the door, only advising them to follow up with other doctors rather than addressing the patient's worries. Giving the details of the most recent visit to a nurse advice line caused them to worry for the patient and submit a report of this "Doctor" and his behavior. And I am submitting this one as well.
