I am just not sure about this physician. It seems like he might be too quick to pull out the surgery card without an explanation as to the reason.
Verified patient
Best doctor ever.
Everyone in the office was very polite and professional. Dr Kerner was great, he was very nice and accomodating. I highly recommend him after my last ENT expierence.
Verified patient
The staff at Dr.Kerners office are nice and prompt about business. They do everything possible to not make you wait an extra minute. Every time I've gone I get there, sign in, fill out any paper work, I sit down and less than 5 minutes later I'm in a room with Dr.Kerner. Dr.Kerner is an excellent doctor that makes you feel well taken care of. I would highly recommend this office and Dr.Kerner. He also removed my tonsils last year and I couldn't be happier with how everything went, from the scheduling, to the surgery and the results. Thanks Dr!
Verified patient

Verified patient
I had a great experience in my first visit for an ENT exam and diagnosis! Of course the videostroboscopy was a little uncomfortable, but it was quick and tolerable. Dr. Kerner was very professional, knowledgeable and friendly. It's also good to know that he's a UCLA Bruin! Morris Nakamura
