    Dr. Kenkel's office got me in right away on a Saturday when I started experiencing some unusual symptoms with my eyes. Dr. Kenkel himself did a thorough exam, explained everything that was going on very clearly and urgently got me into see a specialist at Cincinnati Eye Institute on Monday. I appreciate the urgency, care and concern as well as the quick follow-up that was done by this office! I will highly recommend to friends and family. Thanks so much!

    Everyone in the office was very nice, and the doctor made the whole visit extremely painless throughout. The doctor made sure I understood the diagnosis and was comfortable with each step.

    - Sara H.

    Dr. Kenkel was amazing. He was very thorough, spent an abundant amount of time with me, explaining various eye facts, did a very thorough exam, and was so nice and relaxed. It's the first exam that I felt they actually cared.
