Dr Mary Kennedy! Her husband is also in the same practice. She's a family Dr. My 7 year old son really likes her!

We loved Dr. GROTE for our pediatrician. After my husband started working for Mercy we had to change. We just got a family doctor. I found it harder to get our kids into see her when they were sick that same day. So I would get your kids a pediatrician. Dr. Grote is a freeman doctor.

My whole family goes to the Dr Kennedys. Russell and Mary. They are great. They are across from freeman, in the Mercy building at 32 nd and Jackson, I think. I love Dr. Mary. My sister worked there for awhile too.

Randy Bowles is awesome. He wears tshirts and jeans and is very informal. Once you are established with him he is good about diagnosing things over the phone too. Josh and i have seen hin for years.

I see Dr. Neighmond (the female one) and absolutely love her!! I saw her before we moved to ak and then called her once we returned and she remembered me (and ryan and Finley) and asked about them since they didn't come with me. She's very knowledgeable and kind although she is a fast talker. Very personable too
Recommendations for a good family doctor in Freeman network, please? Mark and I need to find another since ours recently retired.
Claudia G. replied:
I would recommend Drs. Hamilton.
Katie G. replied:
Oh yeah I just started going to Scott Hamilton last year, best doc I've ever had.
Claudia G. replied:
I used to work with the elder Dr. Hamilton at Freeman. He is a great physician.
Janet D. replied:
Yep, agree Dr. Scott Hamilton. He was able to see me last fall, as a new patient the same day I called. That never happens, usually new patients aren't seen for months.
