    Kept apologizing to me for having to drive to lexington from danville. Not their faults, it's insurance. Just never had a doctor be so nice.

      Both Dr. Harned and his fellow was compassionate, sympathetic, and communicated clearly. Even with me being terrified and emotional. My IVP MD was out for the week. I was promptly seen the following day after a ER visit. By Dr. Harned. Everything was addressed and I was given clear instructions for what to do if things got worse. Every provider I have seen at UK IVP is caring and knowledgeable. I'm very thankful for all they have done and continue to do for me.

      Dr harned works with lot different students which are learning. But dr harned himself always discusses things or his pa in appointments and gets things straightened out if there are errors in billing that causes delays
