I traveled almost two hundred miles from the DFW area to the Marr‑Kirkland Clinic for my son’s cornea transplant, and I could not be more grateful for the experience. After consulting with three other surgeons, I chose Dr. Kirkland because of his reputation for genuine, human‑focused care—and his impressive background, having studied medicine at Duke University.
From the moment we arrived, Dr. Kirkland’s warm, compassionate attitude set the tone for a remarkable experience. He and his staff took the time to truly listen, slowing down whenever needed to address our concerns and to remember that my son is a person with feelings—not just a surgical case. Their genuine engagement, clear communication, and unwavering dedication made us feel valued and reassured throughout the entire process.
If you are looking for a surgeon and a practice that prioritize empathy, patience, and top‑quality medical expertise, I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Kirkland and his amazing team. Their commitment to treating patients as humans first, combined with Dr. Kirkland’s Duke University training, truly makes all the difference.
