I had issues with rating scale; five star rating for all questions-lets be honest-who wants to be at a doctors office with a wait time of five minutes or less! Great for schedules but how much time is being spent with a patient who needs more then a typical time slot! Dr May is an excellent and caring doctor! I feel for my circumstance she went above and beyond what most doctors would have for my situation- I will always be grateful to Dr May!

I've seen Dr. May numerous times and she delivered my daughter. Dorothy is very professional, just does her thing and is in and out. Previous ratings may have thought she was "rude" but from my experience she isn't "chatty" or super friendly to anyone, but that does mean she is rude. She has always been very nice to me and my hubby.

Despite the previous comment, I found her to be highly professional and caring. She cared for during a difficult pregnancy with the utmost compassion.

I had one bad experience with Dr. May, but the other experiences were fine. I found her listening skills to be poor.

I find her to be rude and lacking in bedside manner. Just another appointment for her to get through today.
