Dr. Kanatani is a gifted physician, but his staff does not reflect his excellence. Their snide bureaucracy ultimately forced us to find another family doctor. We miss Dr. K.

Dr Kanatani is a great diagnostician and listens very well to what you have to say. He speaks slowly and clearly when giving you what he feels is the issues you need to deal with. He doesn't have that attitude that most Drs have. My wife and I and my Father-in-law have been going to him for many years. We first met him at American Family Care. You don't have long waits in his lobby or in the room when you go back. I would definitely recommend him to anyone.

Dr. K is always always willing to listen to you and is an AWESOME doctor. I've been a patient for many many years and would never think of using anyone else. He seems to be genuine and truly cares. He's like old time family doctors used to be - Very caring and wants to truly know about you and what you are going through. He wants to know your family! Staff is GREAT as well!

Dr. K and his staff are great. When he left from American Family Care & I was so upset because he really listens to you and seems to care. I like that you don't have to wait a long time in his office. Overall I would recommend Dr K to anyone.

Dr. K is a great physician. My family used him year's ago at Cahaba Family Medicine. He moved away for awhile. Then resurfaced unbeknownest to me. We were very excited to learn about his new practice. I recommend everyone to him.

Kent Kanatani is a fantastic physician, great to work with, and spends a great deal of time with his patients. (You should plan on waiting a little while to see him, because he'll be spending as much time as he has to on his patients ahead of you too. You can't have that both ways, but the waiting room has a nice couch, and the doc is absolutely worth the wait.) The doc's practice is fairly young; he was with American Family Care in Pelham for ages before he hung out his own shingle in the fall of 2006. As of this writing in May of 2007, his staff is still working out some bugs on the bureaucratic side. It's the one and only thing I hate about going to see Dr. Kanatani.
