Dennis S O'Brien, MD

I was Dr. O'Brien's 4th chart when he started his independednt practice and I was a bit disturbed by one dindividual's review of him a a poort dignostian. Nothing could be father from the truth. He successfully moved my wife off of heart mediciatin she was misdiagnosed for by a previus doctor. Whent ther other individula is just a difficult person, and not a people person, I do not know. I have alsways found the staff to be consummate professionsla dn very personable. Finally, you have to be your own proponent -- basically the squeaky wheel gets the grease. If something does not seem to be improving and Dr. O'Brien thinks you may need a specialist, he is the first one to recommed someone. His office aways get a call back to you with lab results along whether I need followup. Upn request, they will also provide you a print out. So I definitely recommed him highly, as I would his colleague, Dr. Thoimpson, his nurse practicioners and medial technical staff.

Dr O'brien is about as uncaring as a doctor can get. After leaving his nightmare of a practice and having to buy my medical records, I found out that during a cat scan for a hernia surgery it was found that I was diagnosed with serious emphazema. For a year he treated me for asthma because he never read the report in my folder. No wonder my asthma wasn't under control.Many times when my wife or I asked a question, he just schrugged his shoulders ....Beyond that, his staff is inept. Forget about any help whatsoever with any insurance complications. In addition, they are exceedingly bitchy.I'm amazed at the apathy and incompetence......

Dr. O'Brien is a good diagnostician and has a great staff. He is conservative when it comes to prescribing drugs. He was an Engineer before becoming a doctor. He has a great dry sense of humor. He is an active runner and encourages his patients to stay physically active. He's a great guy and I highly recommed him.
