- October 5, 2022 He is by far one of the nicest doctors that I've encountered. He does both of my knees, and I wouldn't have wanted it to he any other doctor. I live in Winston but I don't mind driving to Lexington to see him. He is never in a hurry, and he has never rushed me. He always ask if I need anything, and even if I don't, he'll say just let me know. He's just an all around nice man and great physician.
- October 1, 2022 Out of 1 to 10, Dr Kammire should be a "12"
- October 1, 2022 Dr. Kammire, as well as Dr. Riggan, (we have seen both on numerous occasions) do not give the patient a "hurried" feeling, are very caring and personable. We feel these are valuable attributes in today's saga of medicine.
- September 26, 2022 Dr. Kammire is a very genuine, and caring doctor. He takes time to talk with you and explain things in layman's terms. He makes you feel like you are the only patient he has.
- September 23, 2022 I HAVE ALWAYS LOVED THIS OFFICE. I HAVE NEVER HAD ANY PROBLEMS WITH THEM. WHAT CAN I SAY? THEY ARE MY FAVORITE !
