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.

Every appointment I had took 2 hours. High pressure sales from his accounting personnel. My bloodwork after I left his office will speak for itself as well. Will never go back and don't recommend him at all

This Dr.s office is completely unorganized and an all around waste of time. I first contacted them at 30 weeks. They knew I was 30 weeks because that was the first thing I told them. After going back and forth trying to get an appointment scheduled for over 3 weeks I receive a call stating they only see patients up to 30 weeks. You could have saved me a lot of time and frustration by telling me that on my first call. So unprofessional- no follow up- no care for patients. Would not recommend.

This is the worst practice I have ever been too. The staff is completely rude and only greet you with “leave a urine sample”. No one in this office is concerned with how you’re feeling or doing and just want to get you out of there as soon as possible. I would never recommend this office to ANYONE! The doctor looks at the same labs and stares at the computer the entire visit, the ultrasound tech doesn’t even explain what you’re looking at and rushes thru and gets you out! Horrible place!!!

Dr. Hennessey is awesome! I have been going to him for 10 years, and I couldn’t be happier. He really knows his stuff, he always asks me if I have any questions , and he spends time explaining everything to you. He has also delivered 2 of my children, and really took care of me after my children were born. He has also saved 2 of my family members lives! I wouldn’t go to anyone else!
