About me

John J. Kennedy, MD is a board certified cardiologist who sees patients in the Annapolis and Kent Island offices, is an active member at Anne Arundel Medical Center and holds the position of Physician Manager for the Annapolis practice.

Dr. Kennedy’s interests include coronary artery disease, preventive cardiology, atrial fibrillation, arrhythmias, hypertension, cholesterol disorders, cardiac murmurs and valve disorders, congestive heart failure, stress testing, echocardiography and nuclear cardiology.

His care approach is to obtain all data needed to diagnose and treat cardiovascular disease , and to educate patients on their condition and management options.
