Doesn't greet family or patients, poor bedside manner. 100% would not recommend. I have heard several neighborhood people have stopping using this joke of a phycisian.

Dr Dougherty mistreats the elderly and their caregivers. She is rude, insensitive, inappropriate and unprofessional. Her explosive personality and sheer disrespect for her patients is disgraceful and offensive.

I was never so let down by a medical professional in my life. She should have her license taken from her due to her lack of ethics and being unprofessional.

She's a nut! Talks about other patients in front of you while you are there using their names. Unprofessional

My wife and I both are patients of Dr. Katie, we would not go anywhere else. She makes you feel comfortable, and does not rush you, listens to what your saying, and cares about your health. Each time she has sent me to a specialist, they have all had something good to say about her.
