Did not gave good experience

I am grateful to Dr. Kevin Dooley. He takes your calls, calls patient even on Sunday and follows up on treatment.

This guy was the primary doctor assigned to my father in-law while he was in the hospital for sudden weakness. Five days in the hospital and neither he or they could determine what the cause was. He also had developed a rash while under his care that they could not figure out. Three days after being discharged, my father in-law was in the hospital again and who do we get?, Dr. Dooley. Three days in the hospital, this time with symptoms of cold chills, then periods of hot spells. Again, they could not figure out what the problem was, and ended up discharging him while he was still experiencing these symptoms. The night of his discharge, my father in-law had multiple seizures, which led to a severe stroke from a blood clot deep in his brain. Two days later he passed away. I would NEVER recommend this doctor for even something as small as a hang nail. I don't know if my father in-laws life could have been saved, but to discharge him without knowing what was causing his… symptoms, is unacceptable.

I had been to the ER who referred me to an ophthalmologist and when I got Dr. Dooley, they told me he was the best, and boy were they right. He was caring, patient, took time to answer my questions and his staff was very polite. He was very knowledgable and reassuring, but didn't talk around the truth. I followed his orders exactly and my vision is improving and may not even have a scar on my eye thanks to his aggressive treatment of my problem. Thank you, Dr. Dooley!!

A very thorough doctor with a great bedside manner and extremely good follow up. One of the few physcians still out there who follows up with his patients personally via phone. His suggestions regarding preventative care are well though out and helpful. His nurse is excellent as well though the other office staff seems indifferent to their jobs and lack concern for patients, particularly at the front desk.

Dr. Dooley is an honest, caring, and professional individual. His bedside manner is great!! He makes you feel at ease. If you have an immediate concern, he takes immediate action. Great guy!! Great doctor!!

Dr. Dooley has the worst bedside manner of any physician I have come across. He lectures, is moralizing, doesn't listen to patient concerns and is often way off base with respect to diagnosis and treatment. He (strongly!) suggested my 18-year-old daughter take Prozac for a stomach ailment, and prescribed medication for my 7-year-old son that his colleague had previously prescribed, which Dr. Dooley said was inappropriate medication! I would not recommend this doctor. In fact, I will pass on to friends and colleagues that they should look elsewhere.

Dr. Dooley is always personable and thorough. When referrals are necessary, they are typically good ones
