Barry Joshua Kemler's Online Review Report Card

Dr. Kemler carefully reviewed my symptoms. When he learned that I was leaving the area for the summer, he made sure I would be scheduled promptly for an endoscopy to get at the root of my issues before I left town.

He has very good bedside manners! I have been dealing with Dr. Kemler for years and I do highly recommend him for his kindness, patience and helpfulness!! He cares about his patients!

My father, Charles, 95yo said he really experienced a great interaction with Dr. Kemler: good eye contact, asked questions based on my comments, helped me to make a plan to resolve my problem and next step if needed, respectful, personable, knowledgeable, caring.

He did not have a good bedside manner with me. Maybe hes better with older patients. He came into the room, with an attitude saying " Pull up your mask." He was wearing 2 masks so don't know this was an issue for him, I wasn't sick or coughing. He was rude when I didn't respond specifically about his questions because it was hard for me to answer exactly how he wanted , and came out and said " Its a yes or no questions, rudely." He definitely wasn't treating me with a bit of concern or warmth. He was confused by looking at my other medical records from my OBGYN and asking me if my grandma had ovarian cancer at 63, I said that I never wrote that. I stood up and looked at the computer and saw it said " example: grandma ovarian cancer age 63 in black computer writing. All of my answers were circled no in teal. He proceeded to say I signed it and then said he didn't understand. He is clearly confused. I wanted to walk out at that point but unfortunately didn't.

It was the most comprehensive GI exam I have ever had. He listened and offered options.

Dr. Kemler was very thorough and asked a lot of questions. I felt like he really listened to my concerns.

Dr. Kemler is the best doctor--he's thorough, kind, and dedicated. He takes plenty of time with you, he asks you many questions, and he will not stop until he finds answers for you. As I said, he's the best!

I have had several occasions to need the expertise of Dr. Kemler. He takes time to explain and time for you to ask any questions! He is personable and professional. His office staff is friendly and efficient. The nursing staff is absolutely supportive, personable, cheerful and professional. I would not hesitate to recommend Dr. Kemler and his staff!!

Very professional very thorough wrote down everything I said and listen to everything I said.

Dr. Kemler is very knowledgeable, thorough and professional. He'll ask you a series of specific questions to gather information about whatever is ailing you and at the end he'll determine the best way to proceed to help you. Give the most specific answers you can as this will help him figure out what's going on and what possible issues you may be having. He has been my gastroenterologist for many years, I trust his opinion and have always received very good care. He had a calm, kind demeanor. He is a top doc in my book. I really don't feel he needs these types of recommendations at this point in his career but the group sent this request so I'm happy to do it for him.
