Lifetime Medical Center

"Best doctor I have ever been to. Extremely smart and staff is always wonderful. I am very grateful for her!!"

"Dr. Kent is the best doctor I have ever had. She and her staff are genuinely interested in each patient. Dr. Kent is a diamond in the rough!!"

"I’ve been seeing Dr Kent for over 13 years. Even through the transition period of opening her own office. She has always treated me with the best care. My family uses her as well. 3 1/2 years ago my mother was in rehab at the nursing home and she had a massive stroke 2 weeks later and was transferred to Piedmont Atlanta. The next day in the room with her I had a heart attack. After numerous tests it was proved she was paralyzed on one side and had massive brain damage. Per her living will she had no quality of of life, a week later she was sent back to nursing home with hospice. They were just keeping her comfortable until God called her home. When she returned she needed more meds, my request so they called Dr. Kent and she took care of this request. That evening Dr Kent came to the nursing home to see my mother. She stepped in to help make her more comfortable during her transition. Most doctors would have just sent meds. As she was concerned about her I told her what I had went through as well. She was the most caring Dr I have ever been to. After my moms passing I had issues of my own. My husband called and she got me in that day. Her diagnosis’s was correct and I began to heal. She is the most caring dr I’ve ever been to. As far as the office staff they have been the most helpful and considerate of any drs staff I have ever dealt with. Past and present. Thank you Dr Kent for your knowledge and your care."

"I am a longtime patient of Lifetime. I have always found Dr Kent and her associates, past and present, very caring and professional. I will not write my health conditions as most probably wouldn’t believe them anyway and they are personal. But they have stood by me over and above ANY other Dr or health institution ever has. I’ve been using them since 2013 after I returned home from another state after a 2 year job contract. I used Dr Kent before that. She was recommended to me by an extremely well thought of orthopedic surgeon that treated me after a motorcycle accident that almost took my life. I cannot possibly state how well and fairly I’ve been treated by these folks. Dr Kent is the best Dr I’ve used in my life. Period. David is a good one to see as well. Outstanding. Matter of fact I saw him today. Very thorough and professional. Justin and Beth, while there, both were great. Lifetime has a knack for finding great people for their staff. I’m sorry but after reading some of these I have to address some remarks concerning Lee the office manager. I’m having a hard time understanding or believing some of the remarks I just read. My experience with Lee has been nothing short of exceptional. There has been a couple of insurance issues that he handled graciously for me. I said insurance issues. Not Lifetime issues as I’ve had no bad issues with them. One thing he handled for me which is personal must have taken hours of his time. And for the record I wasn’t charged a penny for it. I’m a 65 year old man now. I’ve been around the block a few times and due to all my health problems have seen more Drs and surgeons than I could ever count. Dr Kent and the Lifetime staff are the best."

"I have been seeing Dr. Kent since 2005 and followed her when she started her own practice at Lifetime Medical Center. Dr. Kent is energetic and compassionate. She she takes time with her patients, is a good listener and very thorough. I've truly appreciated having a doctor that I can trust with my mental/physical health and any questions I might have. I recently have been seeing more of the Nurse Practitioner, David Patton, because I have had to make several last minute appointments and Dr. Kent was booked. He is an excellent caregiver as well. He is compassionate, listens and is very thorough to make sure his patients are well taken care of. All of the staff that I have encountered at Lifetime Medical Center are kind and helpful. I recently moved further away to Canton and continue to make the drive to Ellijay because I know I will always be well taken care of. I have recommended many friends to Dr. Kent over the years and will continue to do so."
