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.

Surprised to read this review ^^ because my experience with him is QUITE the opposite. Yes, the patient rooms are small, but how much room do you really need for a neurological exam? As to Dr. Kitt, over the last 18 months that I've been seeing him, I've found him to be thorough in both his exams, tests, and explanation of my condition. We've gone through a roller coaster of medications trying the find one that works for me as my symptoms change, but he continues to be patient and kind. I've been to a lousy neurologist, and he's very, very good.

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Kitt?
This man is mean, grumpy and dismissive. The office is small and has super old equipment. The patient rooms are really small. He is rough - poking with unnecessary roughness. He is unable to give good directions in order to have a me move my limbs. So instead of being more explicit, he states, "She can't understand me." I would never go back and I certainly would never recommend him to friends and family. There are lots of doctors, so there is no need to go to one that is rough, grumpy and mean
