    Dr Kennedy is so great in every area- he is a ten on a scale of 5! I recommend him to everyone. He explains things clearly and is kind and efficient.

    My clinician was, as always, thorough, and explained things in a knowledgeable manner, giving me time to ask questions.

    When the doctor finally came into the room, he thought I was a new patient. Even though I have been seeing him for at least 2 years, he didn't recognize me.

    The visit was not about treatment options, it was a follow up to prior YAG laser

    My previous eye care provider retired. I requested that his office forward my records to Dr. Kennedy. They did not, so I hand carried a hard copy of my records, which Dr. Kennedy took time to read during the appointment.

    I liked Polyclinic before Optum. The transition has been confusing and costs were increased under Optum. I have had experiences with Optum before. Every interaction with Optum has been administratively creepy, so if the clinician went to another clinic, I would recommend them.

    It would have been nice to have used the imaging I had done 5 days prior instead of repeating and charging me for the same tests

    I have recommended Dr Kennedy to all my family members. He's kind and an excellent communicator. He just puts me at ease in dealing with my eyes.

    MD spoke fast, seemed rushed; difficult to remember all he said, forgot questions I wanted to ask because it felt so rushed.
