Dr. Kenneth Hentschel

Dr Henschel is a good listener and builds a patient plan based on your information and answers to his questions. He is methodical in questioning and gives the patient options whenever possible. I love how he documents the detailed medical plan 2on his white board so that I can take a photo and not rely on my memory.

Great Specialist who cares and listen.

He will answer all questions you may have.

Very kind and cares forr the well mess of his patients.

Had a good visit with Dr. Hentschel. He listened to my concerns and tested me to see what my balance problem could be. Overall good doctor. Only negative I have is with his office phones & lack of staff. Found out they're in middle of training new staff. Not able to get through to anyone or get call backs to schedule appointments, had to go thru patient portal to do so. Also told them their phone system had incorrect prompts that need to be fixed. Hopefully we'll see better results in near future.

Wonderful person, very kind and listens to your questions. Helps you to relax about you your concerns

Dr Hentschel is the best doctor. He really shows that he cares but st the same time he is professional. I won't want any other neurologist.

Dr Hentschel remains focused on problem-solving. Superb communication. No wasted time or testing. Always transparent thought process. Clear plan.

Dr. Hentschel is a great doctor I hope he never leaves the hospital. He is very caring and attentive to all patients. Great person he cares about you. Thank you ????

Great physician, listens and cares about his patients. Thank you

Very courteous, personable-my daughter has dementia and he looks past her disability and treats her kindly and with respect and empathy-she is totally comfortable with him and so am I (her mother and caregiver)- I know that his first concern is her wellbeing- we are blessed with his being her doctor!!

A good visit with answers.

Always very nice and professional! Does not rush appointments, see’s each patient with a fair time.

Dr Hentshel drew a very informative diagram to show how the damaged nerves were affecting my muscles. That was helpful in understanding the weakness particularly in my left leg. No weird disease causing this! Thankyou.

I saw him in the hospital for a “mini-stroke” which I found was caused by unchecked very high BP. I found Dr. H. to very informative in explaining my issue and giving me a positive destination to look forward to regarding my treatment and recovery. When I later saw him at his office, he was very positive and also empathetic as to my emotional state regarding the anxiety I had. Very caring and not rushed…. Answered all my questions!

Very informative and helpful explaining issues treatments and options

Dr. Hentschel has been a Godsend. Finally, I have a doctor who listens to me, who explains everything we’re going to do, and who is patient when I ask a gazillion questions. I feel that they don’t get any better than him, and I have seen multiple doctors who have simply blown me off instead of coming up with a plan for my care.

Dr. Hentschel is kind, professional & very compassionate. His assistant Christina is wonderful! Whatever she says she'll do she will follow through! Thank you!!

He is very patient and takes time to explain everything to you. He appears to be very knowledgeable & seems interested in your care.

Friendly, knowledgable, good bedside manner.

Dr Hentschel is extremely knowledgeable and is very enthusiastic about my care. He explains issues and makes sure I am aware of my part in my care.

I have complete trust in this Dr. .He listens, respects his patients, works diligently to prove to the insurance company why a procedure is needed and can be relied upon to take the time to teach me about my issues and suggest proper care.

Dr Hentschel was prepared to listen to and answer my questions frankly with empathy. He educates me and looks for the positive aspects of my situation. I recommend him.

Excellent bed side manner, very compassionate, cares about what is best for patient suffering with memory issues, cares about care giver also

He is kind. Speaks clearly. I believe there is nothing to be done for my husband’s dementia so he is giving him Prozac for anxiety and tells me I have to have patience. He knows I need respite. I need help but felt I was sort of rushed out. I think he could do some assessment and give ‘home work’ tasks or goals to help us. I was glad he ordered an MRI.

Great Specialist who cares and listen.

Pleasant, Professional, and thorough.

The best Dr Hentschel ,D.O.anyone can have for Migraines or I wish I had him for all my medical needs. It’s the best when he uses the white board, he, he,

Dr Hentschel’s expertise is commendable I trust his decisions concerning my care. Dr Hentschel also listen to your concerns and addresses the issues with thorough evaluation before suggesting a course of action. I do recommend Dr Hentschel .

Dr. Hentschel spent over 40 minutes going over my headache concerns. All options were explained in a thorough & easy to understand manner. There is a plan of attack to find out the severity of the problem & treat my present headaches until tests can be performed.

Dr Hentchel is a wonderful doctor. I would highly recommend him to everyone. He takes the time to listen and explains things to you. I always enjoy my visits with him.

Dr . K. Hentschel listens to my concerns and involves me in the plan to best take care of my medical needs.

He’s always very thorough and ask questions and I feel like he is a good doctor and I would recommend him to anyone!!

Dr. Hentschel is one of the best neurologist I have ever come across. Its is challenging to find doctors that actually listen to you. He is one that truly listens and is very thorough. You can not go wrong with him.

Every visit, he has taken his time to listen to my concerns and explain all of my treatment options in great detail. I highly recommend Dr. Hentschel!

I have had numerous visits with Dr Hentschel. He is always caring and takes his time with me. He writes down our care plan on his blackboard. Doctor had me take a picture of it so I can look back at it. When I reach out with a question his office actually answers me either through the portal or with a phone call. I have been to many doctors in my lifetime and have never found any office as Contentious as Doctor Hentschel and his staff.

Very good

Dr. Hentschel is always kind and interested in how you are doing. He is patient and listens to all you have to say. He clearly states what his plan for helping you to get better is. I have always felt like I was getting the best care available with Dr. Hentschel.

Competence and empathy was evident during our first meeting. He was clear in his questions and through in his evaluation. His plan is easy to follow. Much better overall than previous Neurologists. I am Confident that I will get the best probable treatment.

Dr. Hentschel is courteous and caring. He explains everything clearly and concisely. He speaks directly to my special needs son and asks great questions. He listens to me heard me and works as a great team member between me and my son. His office staff are great

Best Neurologist I've ever seen in my life.... Very detailed and pay attention to all my concerns! Never once had an issue with him or his staff. Highly recommend to anyone in need of a neurologist

Dr Hentschel takes time, listens & answers the many questions we have concerning my dad! I am in another state and he has been amazing keeping in contact w/ me and responding to my calls! I so appreciate such a caring physician!

I am so very glad that I was able to see Dr Hentschel today. He was warm,caring, and interested in what I could tell him; but more importantly he was thorough, professional, and determined to make a difference in my quality of life. I would definitely recommend this neurologist

I am a Neurologist myself, and I thoroughly trust Dr. Hentschel with the care of my father. He is kind, thorough, considerate and deliberate. He communicates very well and is listens carefully. I would wager that any negative reviews on this site are the result of trolls, because anyone who has actually been cared for by Dr. Hentschel would not legitimately have a complaint about him. He truly is exactly the kind of doctor we so desperately need today, and he should be commended for his superlative, caring approach to patient care.

It does no good to be a great doctor when you treat your patients like crap and string them along for months waiting for an appointment then just before the appointment call and say his schedule is changing youll need to make a new appointment for 3 more months out. thats leaving me out in the cold and without any way of getting treatment otherwise. I could have already been seen someone else if he had no intention of treating me! what a terrible person

Never saw my Father In Law while in St. Vincent's. Did absolutely nothing to help him. AHCA complaint filed. If he is your doctor and you are not receiving proper care call a Risk Manager at the hospital and file complaint. Trust me I know. STAY AWAY!!!!! ..... You have been warned.

I was nervous about seeing Dr Hentschel because of care I had gotten in the past. when I was in the hospital he came in the room the room and introduced himself asked questions to see what test to run. He ran a brain scan now mind you four different Dr's ran the same test and said they couldn't find any and said it was all in my head. So I started to Believe it until a year and a half later of no meds no treatment and it happened again I was taken to st vinincents southside and was in the hospital not even a day He ran the brain scan test and came up with the problem. so after four drs not knowing what was going on and took 5 to get it right I would say he knows what he's doing and I trust him with all my health care needs.

I was in St. Vincent‘s for a week with foot drop, severe leg weakness, severe nerve pain and numbness with foot drop and the inability to lift my leg. He came in to see me every single day and listened to my complicated spinal history, symptoms and problems and reviewed every test that was ordered and compared to the neurosurgeon, (Dr Stephen Pirris he was a God send. Dr. Pirris wrote in my chart that I was basically not giving my full effort of the strength of my right leg and foot on his minuscule, so-called neurological examination which was a joke and which now stays in my medical chart for ever. Dr. Hentschel read every aspect of all my testing including MRIs, CT scans and EMG/nerve conduction study and came up with specific reasons why I was having these symptoms. I trust Dr. Hentschel whole heartedly and he agreed with my suggestion for a second opinion for another neurosurgery consult. That neurosurgeon (Andrew Cannestra) agreed with everything Dr Hentschel said. He spent a great amount of time listening to me and explaining to me why I was having trouble and severe leg weakness And explained it to me on a whiteboard so I was able to better understand his opinion. Dr. Hentschel is one magnificent physician and I can’t imagine why anybody would have anything negative to say unless for some reason they were rude to him. He was nothing but kind, understanding, empathetic and what I feel was the best physician in my care. If it wasn’t for him, I probably would’ve been sent home on day two, instead Dr. Henshel sent me to Brooks inpatient rehab facility to regain some strength in my leg. I am now scheduled for a complex neurosurgery waiting for his authorization, unfortunately spinal surgeries are getting harder and harder to be approved and I have such a complex case having had eight spinal surgeries mostly in my lumbar spine but also a two level fusion in my cervical spine and a supposed two level fusion in my thoracic spine done by the aforementioned neurosurgeon but my scans prove otherwise… No fusion was done. Please don’t listen to any of the negative reviews because they simply are not true. As a matter of fact, I will be scheduling an appointment to see him again after five months and my spine and leg rapidly declining.

He is very thorough and he listens. He isn't the kind of doctor that your going to see and tell him what you want him to do. He will evaluate and order the necessary tests and bloodwork to take good care of you. He will respect you and wants that in return. He will answer all your questions. My mother ( who is his patient) and I enjoy and appreciate him. He is very thorough and he listens. He isn't the kind of doctor that your going to see and tell him what you want him to do.

I have no idea how anyone could say anything bad about Dr. Hentschel. He was awesome, very intelligent, thorough and honest. He would not tell you anything but the truth. He is the main reason for my wife's speedy recovery from her stroke. I'm positive she could not be in better hands.

Filed a formal complaint. He's extremely rude and is utterly useless. He complains about how his time is precious yet my mother waited an hour and half on him.. just to be mocked and talked down to by a doctor. There are plenty of doctors out there, this one shouldn't be one.

I was highly impressed with Dr. Hentschel. It was clear to me that he saw & understood the amount of pain I’m in right now. I agree with everything Cole Marie wrote in her review. His degrees are impressive. As Cole stated, I appreciated his writing a plan on the white board & having me take a picture. I wish more doctors would do this at the end of appointments. I have seen many doctors in the past 12 years & so far, truly believe the Spine & Brain Center at St Vincent’s will be able to help me. I was highly impressed with Dr. Hentschel.

He is rude. He does not listen. The treatment he prescribed was contraindicated for my condition. I found a different neurologist, who immediately changed my treatment, and helped me to achieve a fairly complete recovery. Had I not gotten away from Hentschel, I am confident that I would have continued to see no improvement, and in fact, a deterioration of my condition. He should not be in practice.

Would not recommend. Terrible doctor.

He was very thorough with my Grandmother who is 93. He sat patiently and listened to her medical problems. I would definitely recommend him.

zero stars. The worst "doctor" I've ever seen

I was a patient with Dr. Hentschel & was seen by him about 4 times in the past 2 years, and was seen once by his nurse. I had several problems: -------One, just to get a refill of a medicine he had prescribed several months ago, I had to call 4 times within 11 days. I was repeatedly told he was in some kind of clinic or conference meeting and could not be reached. He and only he could authorize the refill. After that 11 days, I finally called my primary care doctor, and the med. was available at the pharmacy within 24 hr. It was very fortunate for me that I thought to call the other doctor. -------Two, I recently had to call Dr. Hentschel's assistant (named Melissa, I believe) again and again to get Dr. Hentschel's office to sent a referral to a pain management doctor--due to my severe DAILY migraines. When it became most time-consuming to call her once more, due to various delays at that office, I finally had a relative sent a Fax to the office to ask her to PLEASE call me at home ASAP. We used the Fax number posted on the doctor's web-site.---- Two days later, I called Melissa and was told that the message had never arrived because I should have used a different Fax number. Now we had carefully written "Dr. Hentschel's Office, Attention Melissa" on the Fax. Since I used the Fax number posted on the web-site, surely it should have been forwarded to her promptly--for the Fax machine we had used indicated that the message had arrived right away. ------Three, worst problem is that the patient is given one appointment time but is actually expected to arrive 20 min. before that time. One employee told me recently that the patient is ALWAYS informed of this requirement, but I certainly never was (and by no means are patients phoned as reminders of their appointments). Thus I arrived at 10:50 for a 10:45 appointment last week, but the receptionist said I was supposed to have been there at 10:25. And not only that, but since I had waited for her to speak to me and had then sat in the waiting-room until 11:00, I was told that I was actually considered to be 35 min. late, since the doctor had not been ready to have me come in until 11:00.---Then I was told this was not my first time to be late, but that surely was news to me! -----It is really inconvenient for me to switch to a different neurologist at this time, but I feel that I have no choice. There is more to doctoring than being able to read a chart ! I was a patient with Dr. Hentschel & was seen by him about 4 times in the past 2 years, and was seen once by his nurse. I had several problems: … More

Dang... after reading that review I feel like I need to comment.... Did we see the same doctor? I havent even seen him in maybe a year but he left such a good impression on me I still feel the need to put my view out there. He has a teaching style with his patients and makes sure they understand everything! I absolutely loved how he wrote on the white board in the room and I can snap a picture after! He always presented a loving attitude that was almost family like with me... his voice is very calming and his tone was never demeaning towards me. I have had some absolutely horrific run ins with doctors due to my conditions not widely understood. Postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome and Elhers Danlos syndrome... so I have experienced the frustration that the person before wrote but that simply was not the case with Dr. Hentschel... after reading a bit deeper into that persons post it seems as if they may have been on narcotics and that can certainly cause frustration in itself... I think he may of offered to see if they would help (because migranes) but he isnt a pain management doctor soooo im wondering if there was some miscommunication there... it most likely shouldnt be refilled by him. Just as I dont have him filling the b12 he found I was deficient in because I dont see him often enough, but he did find it and acknowledge it... anyway, I actually look forward to seeing you again Dr Hentschel! ♡ ~~Nichole S. Ohhh and his stafff was always superrrrr sweet to me.. alwayssss. Compliments and all hahaha. But seriously, I have no clue what that person below is talking about...

My first impression with this practice was not good. It sounds like the elevator is crashing through the ceiling of the practice. The front desk lady and the nurse were polite and helpful. Dr Hentschel was rushed and rude. I am a collage graduate and a medical professional myself and I do not appreciate being spoke to like I am stupid. During the exam he pulls out a safety pin to stick me and tells me it is a new one out of the box. My gut feeling is to dump this guy. I did not like him.

Dr. Hentschel was awesome, very attentive and thorough. He worked to rule out all the bad stuff it could be, before just assuming it was basic.
