I would strongly advise not using Dr. Kennedy as your GP. He is only concerned with forcing you to make appointments for every little thing and does nothing to accommodate a persons individual circumstances. I have bad acid reflux disease and was in his office in March of 2012 for a checkup. I am a healthy 29 year old male otherwise. In November 2012, my pharmacy says Dr. Kennedy refused to renew my acid reflux medication (the only medication I take). When I called his office, his staff said that he would not renew the medication without another checkup. It had only been about 8 months but I said OK, schedule the checkup. However, his office couldn't get me in for a week. I asked if I could get just a few doses of my medication to hold me over. His nurse said no. Basically, my esophagus can burn and erode for a week. I couldn't believe what I was hearing, and I assumed the nurse and doctor weren't communicating very well about my situation, so I asked to speak with the doctor. He got on the phone, was very short, and lectured that he wasn't going to accommodate and suggested some over the counter medication in the meantime.
