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.

Excellent experience
This was my first diabetic foot exam. And I did have a few questions. Dr Doolan made my visit super easy. He explained what I needed to do going forward with my foot care. Went over my labs with me, and let me know exactly what condition my feet were in. I left the office with all my questions and concerns answered. I felt extremely confident after the appointment.

Wonderful Doctor
Dr Doolan fixed a very long-standing problem I had which many others couldn’t. And, after a fall, despite two xrays which didn’t show a fracture of my heel, git an MRI which showed the fracture since he was positive my herl was fractured after examining me. He is absolutely the best!!!!

Very happy with Dr. Doolan
I saw Dr. Doolan for a new patient consult and I was very pleased. The Dr. needed radiographs of my foot and after he viewed the x-rays he was able to give me a diagnosis and recommend a treatment. He was professional, caring and concerned and was personable and approachable as far as answering any questions I asked. The wait time for an appointment was reasonable. I would definitely recommend Dr. Doolan.
