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.

Highly recommend Dr. Keener
Dr. Keener not only reviews all of your treatment options, but he also takes the time to explain them clearly so you can make an informed decision.

Tennis elbow
I visited the clinic after suffering for months with pain in my elbow. After consulting with the PA & Dr. Keeners, I was advised that it would take time to heal and no surgery was required. They were not anxious for anything invasive and were quite good at explaining everything.

Knowledgeable and efficient
I was 100% pleased with my first visit, which completely cured the issue with my ring finger. When my middle finger developed the same problem, I saw Dr. Keener for the same treatment. He explained that the procedure did not always work so well, so he laid out options if this treatment was not as effective as the first one. Off the top of his head he knew the statistics and probably of success for each treatment!

Knowledgeable Friendly Doctor
1. I was highly impressed with Dr. Keener’s assessment of my injuries. 2. I am very grateful for Dr. Keener’s suggested treatment for my broken wrist and the nurses, under his supervision, that put a cast on my wrist. 3. In my last visit with Dr. Keener, he provided his knowledgeable evaluation about my recovery. He instructed me about the therapy process that I have been following and I appreciate him giving me his sound advice. I am grateful for his friendliness. I will highly recommend Dr. Keener should I find another person who needs his expertise.

Very thorough
He was very thorough, making sure my diagnosis fit my symptoms, and discussing possible treatments and what to expect from them, as well as side effects. I had originally been planning on getting surgery, but based on my discussion with him I realized there were other treatment options to pursue first, which will save me a lot of time and money.

comfortable experience
I was pleasantly surprised that Dr. Keener took my pain and issue seriously even though it is highly uncommon for people my age. The entire experience was extremely comfortable and knowledgeable. He even went as far as to order more tests and referrals to help figure out the root of my issue. Very refreshing to have a doctor not diminish my issues!

Dr. Keener was very professional and knowledgeable
We had very little wait time. We were called almost immediately after arriving to register and the nurse called me within 5 minutes. Dr. Keener came in shortly after the nurse left. I was very impressed with the practice.
