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.

Dr. Keil is rude, demanding, and has an aggressive demeanor. No wonder his practice has shut down. I wouldn't trust him with a gold fish.

Dr Kiel is retired to my knowledge. He was the best doctor that I have had. Made me interested in my health care and explained results in depth. Highly recommended. Frequent lab test with full copy of results. No one else has ever done that for me. Thanks

I was never pleased with him. He never treated me for my medical problem. He made me feel uncomfortable. He always wanted to hug me and asking me personal questions that did not pertain to my health. I find out his phone has been disconnected and office shut down.

He was impatient and rude, and his secretary was just as bad. Never again!

Dr. Jeffrey J. Kiel and his entire staff have been my medical care provider for almost 15 years. Doctor Kiel is very thorough, compassionate, and is exemplary in providing the medical care needs for everyone. As a senior citizen, I have full faith and trust in Dr. Kiel's decision making process and he has provided me with outstanding health care for many years. He is always available, even after hours via his paging system, and has never disappointed me in any way. Recommend him to you!

Cannot get in to see him when you are sick. They are great about scheduling regular medicare check-ups and says to call if you need him. Well, we called when we needed him and they offered us an appointment in 13 days! Says they just don't have openings. I guess that is great if you aren't sick! Time to find a new doctor...

Never gave me Bad test results, was right there at desk to check in, was 10 mins late & was REFUSED to be seen. Asked to talk to him, was with next appt, rude desk lady said appts are every 10-15 min only, WOW, time for me to find a caring Dr., which I did of course. Wouldn't return my phone calls, or release my records. He sent certified letter to my son to find another Dr., New dr said needed surgery ASAP, suffered extra 8 months, due to bad doctor not giving me test results that I deserved

Kiel is an absolute horrible Doctor. He is a drug pusher, is what he is, so if that's what you're looking for, then he's your guy. He completely misdiagnosed me.
