Ken welcomed me into the pediatric practice when I was starting out as a young pediatrician and was always so kind, and a great teacher. His families were devoted to him and he often took care of the whole family and not just the children! May his memory be a blessing.

Dr. Bradford cared for my five children and then twin grandchildren from birth through adolescence. You can imagine that we spent a good amount of time at his office from scrapes to febrile seizures. He cared, then, for healthy full term twins with the same skills and care and humor. He was a good man and a skilled physician. My best wishes and condolences to his family.
