I was referred to Dr Mcgettigan by a friend. I actually ended up seeing Dr Benoy who I adore. The completely Inability to contact the office because if their deplorable phone system however may force me to find a new doctor.. which is TRULY sad because I do like the practice. ):

Dr McGettigan has been my provider for approximately 18 months. I have been impressed from day one by his kind, gentle, and caring manner. Dr McGettigan is extremely knowledgeable and professional, yet he is down to earth and very engaging. I never feel rushed during my appointments. We discuss all the aspects of my health. He is also extremely concerned about my daily activities and what measures could be used to improve my quality of life. I highly recommend Dr. McGettigan to anyone who would like a doctor to view you as a whole person--mind, body, and soul!! I feel so fortunate to have Dr. McGettigan as my provider, and he continues to improve my quality of life!!

Dr McGettigan is a wonderful primary care physician who listens to me as a patient and is able to offer medical advice that I can understand. Even if I don't he will always take the time to explain it to me in a way I can. I would definitely recommend Dr McGettigan to anyone looking for a great long term doctor. I've been a patient for years, and have only had great experiences.
