I absolutely LOVE Dr Keenan and her staff. She is top notch! I had to go to another Pulmonologist last year because of my insurance, and the care was no where near the same. I am SO HAPPY to be able to come back to her!!

Dr Lynn Keenan is an exceptional doctor. She listened to every word. She asked a lot of questions that weren't on the questionnaire. I felt extremely comfortable with the exam and her findings. I would highly recommend her to anyone. Also, Oscar in the pulmonary lab was fabulous. He explained the instructions proficiently and was involved in the testing every step.

Dr. Keenan is always very attentive and so exacting in her explanations. She is a compassionate and caring physician and I am fortunate to have her as my pulmonologist. She did a walk test with me and it was determined that I would see the Respiratory Therapist, Aubrey, who was very helpful. She was extremely patient with me in her explanations of the oxygen regimen that I would be following. Bless her for her patience with me! Dr. Keenan goes above and beyond in her appointment visits either by phone on in person. She is very much appreciated.
