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.

Great experience
I had a great experience with Dr Kern and his office staff. He was able to correct my varicose veins that I have had for years and was self-conscience about. He spent time with me and explained everything and answered all my questions. Highly recommend.

Amazing!
I had a wonderful experience here, coming from a previously traumatizing experience in a vein clinic in Florida I was super nervous for the procedures. Dr. Kern and his staff really put me at ease with their very informative care & easygoing personalities. He chose his team right!! Before the procedures even begin Dr. Kern explains everything that is about to happen & why it needs to happen. Then he walks you through each upcoming step of the procedure & even joked around to ease the discomfort which was absolutely minimal, compared to my vein removal from many years prior at a different clinic. The whole staff is so pleasant with the patient & with each other, it feels like a family environment. My legs healed quickly, without any issues. I will most definitely recommend Dr. Kevin Kern & his staff to anyone seeking help with any leg vein issues. I will be returning in 2024 to remove some spider veins as my last step in healing my legs. Thank you Dr. Kern & your an amazing staff.

I had a very very bad experience on September 5, 2017 with doctor KERN, and ended up in the emergency room. I am still having repercussions regarding the procedure. It changed my life. These vein procedures are no minor surgery. I only had one procedure but my health has been a nightmare since then. It triggered so much pain ALL OVER my body I couldn't work anymore and had lots of sleepless nights. I had to see a neurologist, an orthopedic doctor, an orthopedic surgeon, a dietitian, a physical therapist, and rheumatologist. No one could figure out what it was. But after many blood tests, I was finally diagnosed in February 2018 with Poymialgia rheumatica and was put on steroids, which made my hair fall and caused me to gain20 pounds and many other Side effects. I had to get off the prednisone after a years couldn't take it anymore.Myleg still hurts and as well as the rest of my body. It has been over 2 years now and I see no end to my suffering. I blame Veins Clinic of America

Dr. Kern and his staff were very friendly, they seemed like a family that truly enjoyed each other and the patients. I had a big nasty varicose vein that has prevented me from being comfortable wearing shorts for over 25years. After the procedure, it took several months for the vein to dissolve....but as they promised, it did, (along with a bunch of spider veins they treated. And now this summer I have been wearing shorts every day, and am extremely happy with the results!!!

I find Dr. Kern easy to talk to, he explains questions I’ve asked. When doing a procedure he helps you to keep your mind off of what is happening.
