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.

Straight to the point!
She knew what to do right away. Immediately gave me referrals needed.

Ok with kids
She gave a great diagnosis and prompt procedure to remedy the issue. Picked her because she was affiliated with pediatric care, I wish her kids bedside manner was better. She wasn't a warm fuzzy and didn't feel the need to explain what was going on or about to happen.

Useless
She was literally 0 help. Despite clear symptoms and ear and sinus problems I had very brief visits with her where she didn’t bother delving any deeper and basically sent me off to fend for my own. find a doctor who will actually bother taking the time to appropriately help you instead of immediately giving up

Avoid this office and doctor
Just came in the room 25 mins late, acted like I was an inconvenience for coming in. Handed me a pamphlet about my issue and let me know I wouldn’t be having a follow up at all. Worst doctor I’ve ever seen, avoid at all cost.

Hopeful
First of all, Dr. Mulligan was running late today (I know these things happen--I have lots of medical experience!!), so it was 45 minutes after my appointment time when I was called in. She reviewed all the things I've tried in the past to resolve my problem, and then discussed further steps we could take (after she looked in my throat with the laryngoscope). I am hopeful that she might turn up some answers and solutions for me! (It would have been nice if she and her nurse would have introduced themselves when they walked in the room, though.)

Quick and thorough
It was a quick and thorough visit. She took my concerns seriously and made sure to actually look down my throat instead of just prescribing something. She referred to another specialist for further evaluation and put my mind at ease.
