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.

Among the best, if not THE BEST, doctors I've had!
Every visit with Dr. Kitchell is a joy; I'm grateful to be among his patients. Dr. Brian R Bennett

Dr Kitchell is very passionate about his work. He has an awesome personality and relates to your problem on a personal level. He makes sure you are 100% satisfied with your visit and what you’re being seen for. Would highly recommend for either sports therapy or primary care. His receptionist, Ashley is very helpful too and is very knowledgeable in what Dr Kitchell does.

Zero star. Tore a couple muscles off my rotator cuff so made appointment with dr Kitchell to which he sent me for a cat scan or mri in the tube. They found metal in the area of my rotator cuff to which i wanted taken out since i do not know how it got there. His reply, lets leave it where it is, won’t touch it. What an idiot, that was a few months ago and I turned down his surgery since he seems incompetent. i still have pain in that area. It keeps me awake at night. I know where the metal is and thinking about if they will not remove it than i may attempt it. A little Titos and razor knife should do it. How the hell did this guy get his doctors license? Question 2 ,Who put the metal in my back right shoulder? It is written in description right on my MRI for all to see. During MRI they had to stop and search for any magnetic metal stuck to my back right shoulder which proved to be on the inside and it’s still there, to which I’m very unhappy about. I’m not sure what to do next.

I chose Dr. Kitchell because of his sports Medicine background. I'm active. My wife and farther now use him also. He takes the time to listen, especially important to my wife, is very knowledgeable and personable. My wife had test results that needed immediate attention, he set her up with first thing next day appt. Prescribed the changes and is currently monitoring her. I highly recommend Dr. Kitchell and his whole support staff as they truly care about their patients.

I'm only giving 1 star because I didn't have the option to leave no stars. My good friend has seen Dr. Kitchell four different times since falling on her knee and did nothing to help her. He never even took an x-ray. Her last visit he told her "there is nothing I can do for you". She has been walking around for over a month with a broken knee! She then went to see a different doctor who immediately told her upon arriving at the doctor's office that she could see her knee was broken.
