Dr’s manner appeared like I was bothering her when I asked 2 questions. Extremely impersonal- like the person didn’t matter. She just checked the body with no questions.

11/21/2024

Dr Oconnor very conscientious

10/31/2024

See original statement. Provider very cut and dry, never once smiled, just a series of questions read off the screen, no intention of getting to know me

10/22/2024

We are very lucky to have Doctor O’Connor and her staff to care for our medical needs.

10/11/2024

I was a "walk in" without an appointment. I was seen within minutes of my arrival. Doctor spent time with me, and I never felt rushed, She listened to my concerns

10/08/2024

It was a very brief, cursory physical exam. I am still waiting for the doctor to call me with my test results.

10/02/2024

Professional, knowledgeable, caring.

10/01/2024

My first experience with a female PCP. She sincerely listened to what I was saying as opposed to a number of male PCPs who tended to be a bit abrupt and anxious to move onto their next patient.

09/26/2024

Provider is a true leader in her profession. Provider prioritized effective communication between her team and patients building strong and family like relations.

03/01/2024

Keep up the good work.

02/28/2024

I’ve already said what I think. My hope was that this doctor would have taken some time to find out about a new patient. I actually have some issues I started to discuss with her and they were dropped like a hot potato. When I think about it, she saw I had a tick. I told her I have two dogs that I walk in the woods. I also started to tell her about some pain I’m having in my body- she didn’t ask one question about that or follow up at all- you would think maybe she might add a Lyme panel to my blood test. I’m not going to get the blood test. I’m not going back. It was a waste of my time. The doctor at urgent care was much more responsive and helpful and talkative. I’d rather do that.

Liked Dr O’Conner very much. Felt like I could feel free to speak to her honestly.

04/15/2023

She barely looked at me and when I told the nurse I thought I was due for a tetanus shot, Dr. never brought it up and I had to stand in hallway to ask and when I did she said, "we don't give those here". you can go to CVS. Then I asked if they could confirm the date of my last one and she said that they didn't have those records anymore since the new system!?!?!? I have been treated there for over 14 years.
