    He is excellent. He listens to his patients. He talks with these patients. And he's just the best gas comerologist UK Kingston has. And I'm proud to be his patient. Thank you.

      I think Dr. Cante is a great doctor. I give him a 10 plus. A lot of times the wait time for his appointments is long, but it's worth it in the long run to see that you got a doctor like Dr. Cante. He's very thorough with every patient. He explains everything. He doesn't rush you out of his office and he listens to everything that you say and any questions that you have, he answers. He's still number one in my book. Thank you, Dr. Cantey, for taking care of me and my family. We appreciate it.

      Yes, I love Dr. Canty. He's such a wonderful doctor. Everyone in my family goes to him. He just treats you like his own can. He watches out for you. He goes into detail with everything that's wrong with you or all the good, all the bad. He doesn't keep nothing from you and he's looking out for the best interest of the patient. I think Dr. Canty is a 10 plus and I'm so glad that he's at King's Daughters and I hope he never leaves. Dr. Canty, you're my hero. He's always so pleasant and so is his office staff.

      Dr. Michael Canty has an excellent patient manner. No matter how long the day has been or how tired that he is, he is knowledgeable of the patient's records and he speaks directly to the patient and he always listens what the patient has to say. His explanations are very clear and he has an excellent manner and he's very thorough to go back and check on your records to make sure that everything is working together amongst all the professionals that you may be seeing.

      I just wanted to say that I really trust Dr. Canty. I think he's an excellent doctor. He always answers all my questions. He never gets in a hurry. And I truly feel that he has my best interests at heart. And I hope he never retires because it would be a huge loss for King's Daughters. Thank you.

      Yes, I trust Dr. Canty 100% with my care. He's very knowledgeable and very experienced. And one of the first people in this area that even knew anything about H. pylori and cured my husband of that. And so that earned my trust 100%. I think that he can't be beat. And I think that he's just had years and years of dealing with Probably a little bit of everything and his very knowledge.
