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.

Dr. O'Brian is incredibly rude and non-compassionate. I went to her thinking that she would understand a working mothers need to be well for her family. The first visit I had with her she told me to give her a year and I'll see some improvement. A year?!? Do you know of any mother that can be sick for a year!?! Many be if you're uneducated she might come across as smart.

Dr. O'Brien is a wonderful doctor. She's very intelligent but down to earth and easy to talk to. She not only has extensive knowledge of GI diseases but also is very knowledgeable of nutrition and dietary management of diseases. After being sick for months and going to the ER twice she was the one to figure out my diagnosis. She ran a battery of tests until she found out what was wrong with me. My illness isn't curable but it's treatable with medications and diet. I'm so glad I've done as well as I have under her care. I think she's the best! She's the one doctor I don't stress over seeing because she's so kind and focused on getting you well again.

I was very anxious about my first colonoscopy. The prep, as everyone knows, was awful. So, in addition, I had to wait 2 hours after my appointed time to have the procedure done. I waited for an hour in the prep room, then went in and felt terribly rushed, treated unkindly, unsympathetic and not reassured by this Dr. The team was unprofessional - the man who did the anesthesia had garlic on his hands ( after not eating anything for 36 hours wasn't pleasant), another nurse leaned on my IV and almost pulled it out- they obviously had a long day and just wanted to go home. You've been given many good reviews and at the end of the day you were doing your job. I cannot give you more than a 1 star rating.

She is rude and very opinionated on topics she doesnt know or understand. Shes quick to tell people how smart she is without ever listening to the patient. Worst doctor I have ever met.
