    Dr. Kerr is the first doctor I've ever had to explain what he will do during my surgery where I really understand what all he will be doing. Time doesn't matter to him, his patients are his top priority and he made sure I understood and was comfortable with what would be done. I believe he will do what he says.

    Excellent and caring physician who reviewed my MRI and explained the pathology and my course. Recommended core strengthening exercises to decrease likelihood of needing more of his care.

    I always recommend him. The funny thing is that people who know I have spine problems often recommend him to me, not knowing that I am already his patient. He's definitely an asset to our healthcare system.
