From the first appointment to the days following my surgery - everything was perfect! He and his staff were supportive and informative. Their education helped me to heal well and I was out walking every day one month later! 10 stars!

I will gladly and proudly reccomend Dr. Kennon
He was friendly, engaging, and seemed eager, but not pushy, to help me.

Hip Replacement
A great doctor who was kind, compassionate, knowledgeable, and answered all of my questions. He went out of his way to explain everything to me and made me feel at ease before the surgery and the morning of the surgery. I would recommend Dr. Kennon to everyone searching for a great Ortopedic Doctor.

A wonderful Doctor who was very compassionate, caring and knowledgeable about my medical issues. He took the time to answer all of my questions and made me feel at ease about my hip replacement during every step of the process. He even checked in on the night before the surgery and came in on the morning of the surgery to reassure me that would be fine. The book that he wrote was also a great companion to his treatment process. I would definitely recommend Dr. kennon to anyone searching for an Orthopedic Doctor.

Dr Kennon is the best
I had a total hip replacement (which was my first major surgery) with Dr Kennon. I cannot say enough positive things about Dr Kennon and his team! Dr Kennon was incredibly patient with me (I had tons and tons of questions throughout the process). I have several outdoor passions that I pursue intensely, including rock climbing, and Dr Kennon was incredibly receptive to my concerns and goals for returning to these activities. He and his staff are extremely compassionate, and their office is excellent at communications. Everyone I’ve spoken to agrees that Dr Kennon is one of the best orthopedics in terms of expertise, skill, and patient care. I am so so happy I found him and am so so pleased with the outcome. I am so grateful and I would wholeheartedly and enthusiastically recommend him!

From the first consult to my post-op care, Dr. Kennon and his staff have been professional, experienced, efficient and nice people to boot! This was my first joint replacement (total hip) and I had lots of questions and a fear of the unknown. All of them were patient with me and often answered my questions before I asked them. The surgery was done at Midstate Medical Center and the staff there was also very good and accommodating. They offer a joint replacement class for patients before surgery, which was very helpful to me. My recovery is going very well and I thank both Dr. Kennon and his staff as well as the staff at Midstate. Thank you all so much!

Knee Replacement
There are not enough superlatives to describe Dr. Kennon, those in his practice, and, the Connecticut Orthopedic Institute.He is kind, patient and empathetic to say nothing of extremely talented and modest. And he puts you at ease from the first consultation through the follow-up appointments after surgery.Two of my doctors including one whose spouse (also a doctor) had a knee replacement performed by Dr. Kennon and a regarded PT in the state all told me Dr. Kennon was the best of the best. He is!Apparently, his surgical method is less invasive than that of many other surgeons which helped account for a speedier recovery. I was fascinated to learn after my operation that his undergraduate degree was in mechanical engineering which may well explain his unique ability.Dr. Kennon and those who work with him are the platinum standard and I am so grateful for all their care, concern, and, expertise.

July 30th was my total hip replacement. Everyone on his team treated me with kindness and highly qualified care. I would highly recommend Mid State hospital in Meridian where I had the surgery. From pre op to post op has been a great experience. Thank you Dr Kennon

Dr Kennon is the Best !
Dr Kennon is so knowledgeable. This is why I came back to have my left knee replaced. He replaced my two hips with no problems. My knee is coming along nicely through physical therapy. Dr Kenner has a great demeanor and will listen to your concerns. I wouldn’t want any doctor doing surgery on me for osteoarthritis !!!

I was delighted with my hip replacement three years ago. Dr. Kennon went out of his way to make sure I had a good experience, including calling me after business hours to patiently answer all my questions. The administrative staff also did a good job working with me through numerous scheduling and billing hassles caused by my unfamiliar insurance. The surgery went well and the new joint has been working great - after six months, I got to resume playing (rec) volleyball, which was important to me. Couldn't be happier, highly recommend.

Why am I leaving a review 3 years after the fact, you ask? Well, turns out the other hip needs replacement now, and I was very much looking forward to having a surgeon I knew and trusted. But it turns out Dr. Kennon has changed affiliations so that my insurance no longer considers his team in-network. That's nobody's fault, but I spent yesterday afternoon feeling awfully disappointed after I found that out. Today I dusted myself off and figured since I wasn't going to see them in person, I'd leave a review to say thanks and sorry we can't repeat. :)

Total Knee Surgery
I had a total knee replacement in August 2024. With Dr. Kennon. The surgery went very well from pre op to post op. It was so much better than I had anticipated! Thank you Dr. Kennon for the excellent care and results.

I have changed this review.
Originally, my review was not kind to the staff and the physician assistant..
Upon actually seeing Dr. Kennon, I found him to be very knowledgeable and easy to talk with. He gave me the 2nd opinion that I wanted, and I was given a non surgical option, which I will follow up on. And I will probably see him again in the future about my other knee.
My apologies to the staff for the original review. Everyone was very friendly and caring.

Excellent surgeon, kind doctor
I had a hip replacement after being in crippling pain. After Dr.Kennon operated and gave me a total hip replacement, I can walk with no pain. Thank you, Dr.Kennon !
