Our experience with Dr. Kerr's office, from office staff, x-ray tech, and trainer to the doctors themselves, was caring and informative. They really took their time answering questions and explaining the diagnosis, how to use the boot, and recommening PT. It was the best experience I've had in a long time.

Scheduling was easy and fast through the online portal. The care team was efficient, empathetic, and thorough on explaining care. We really liked Dr. Kerr and trainer (staff name)! We were referred by 2 of our rugby families in (city).

We are very appreciative of the care Dr. Kerr provided and knowledge of my son's injury. Our physician and the staff were kind and empathetic and took their time with us. All of our questions were answered and we were very comfortable with his plan of care.

Everyone at this practice is wonderful! From the moment you walk in, you just know that they are concerned with the well being of your child, and they do everything possible to ensure the proper treatment is being done, as well as answering any and all of the questions you may have. My experience across the board with Akron Children's has been nothing short of awesome!
