4.0 star star star star star_borderI've only seen Dr. Kerr twice. While I found her more engaged and engaging this time I still felt like my annual exam was somewhat perfuntory and checklist. I don't feel like she is treating me holistically or as an individual.

5.0 star star star star starShe is excellent in taking care of both my husband and myself for our healthcare needs. Both hands on and through phone contact. We have only had her for a year now, but she is equally caring as our former internists from Michigan Avenue Internists Office. We were given her name by them because we could not do the Concierge Program. They highly recommended her and we are very pleased. Thank you!

5.0 star star star star starMy previous primary doctor was Dr [ ]. I was saddened when he had to take an indefinitel personal leave. I was concerned also that it would be difficult to see another primary that I would have as much trust and faith in… I believe now he has put me in good hands with Dr Alice Kerr

5.0 star star star star starSee above. I know she has a tight schedule and so many patients, but she doesn’t rush. She patiently hears my concerns and addresses them. I feel as though she is a caring friend, not a medical professional! I just love her.

5.0 star star star star starShe is very thorough in her explanations. Takes the time to be sure you fully understand. More importantly her not aggressive, but encouraging, style has made me have my first Pap smear, sign up later this month for my first mammogram and will have my first colonoscopy by year end. I am 64 years old.
