Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Very honest and knowledgeable. Did not give up till he found a cause of my daughter's problem and fixed it but she will have other problems and he told us this. But overall very great Dr. We nicknamed him 'Uncle Dana'

Dr. Tyrrell was my surgeon in 2014 and again in 2019, when I was diagnosed with breast cancer again and had to have a macectomy. I knew I wanted him to do the surgery. He is kind, knowledgeable.

Anyone who’s spent time at Point Breeze in Wolfeboro, New Hampshire is just fine with me. He implanted a port for my chemo. I’d have no qualms about using him again.... if needed.

Dr. Tyrrell is very straight forward in his approach. I felt confident in his clinical ability and placed that trust in his hands. It was additionally comforting to have my other doctors stating high praise for him. I am thankful for his help and expertise.

Only positives for Dr. Tyrrell and his staff! Immediately I felt at ease. He was recommended by a former patient, and heard testaments from others as to his abilities. He was professional, LISTENED, asked, and RESPONDED to questions. It's necessary to find a doctor you have confidence in, but equally important to find one that is competent. My experiences Dr. Tyrrell is such. If I could rate more than 5 stars, it would be deserved. Office Staff: Efficient, professional, thorough, and personable.
