    Dr. Kelley is so knowledgeable, and overwhelmingly caring. She radiates kindness and has put me at ease with my current rocky road. I'm grateful to have her on my team.

    Dr Kelley is very forthcoming about what is happening with me and about the plan going forward. I appreciate knowing what's going on with my health. I didn't have that when my husband went through his cancer 17 years ago.

    I like her a lot. I just was disappointed that I had to wait an hour and a half after my appointment.
