Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

A-FIB
I have had Dr. Kelly for 2 years have been having breathing problems for that time, went to lung doctors at UNC Chapel Hill. All test state A-Fib all reports went to Dr Kelly. He said I did not have A-Fib. Went into heart failure twice. Second time to REX Heart Hospital Raleigh. When admitted had A-Fib when go up into my room. Told Dr. Kelly next day he stated I did not have A-Fib. He did CT and cat. I asked him why Heart Failure he did not give me any answers and asked me to go home. I asked can he find out why or think out of the box, he said go home. As of release of hospital he is no longer our family doctor. I had to fly to New York to get our old heart doctor. I also had been be admitted to REX hospital Raleigh again for diverticulitis and had A-Fib attack, it was recorded. Dr. Kelly has no bedside manner and dismissed me. He is the most uncaring doctor I have ever had. I told the staff at the hospital about Dr. Kelly. I will not see any of the other doctors that are in his offic

Upon meeting Dr. Kelly I immediately felt very comfortable which is unusual for me and after my initial visit I could tell he is very meticulous, detail oriented and listened to everything I had to say. I could tell right away that I was definitely with the right doctor and left there feeling that whatever may be wrong he would find the problem and put me on the right Road to recovery.

Good visit. Sometimes I wonder if one good test result would make the doctor treat me like the symptoms I feel in my heart are minor or irrelevant and not take what I say or how I feel serious enough. But I have not gotten that treatment from Dr. Kelly. I enjoy my visits with this office.

Dr Kelly was great! He listened to all of my concerns, reviewed my med list, and went through each of my issues carefully. They did the stress test in the office the same day. Highly recommend. Barely waited five min.
