Dr. Laura Elizabeth Connolly, MD

Incredibly rude! Was condescending to my teenage daughter and to me. I don’t know how she’s still working because she’s, by far, the most unprofessional doctor I’ve EVER met.

Terrible and very unprofessional. She is very rude and treats patients as if they are stupid. It’s insane and embarrassing how she still is able to work at Milford Hospital.

Very unprofessional and rude. Speaks abruptly and treats patient as if they are dumb. Abruptly interrupts while patient is speaking. Horrible bedside manners. Not sure why she chose this profession.

I was in the Er for what turned out to be bilateral shingles . After running her finger down my back over shirt with out looking at my back ( where she would have seen a rash ) she stated “well your back is not broken” great, thanks. I figured that out from the fact that I’m walking! I had severe back pain that was getting progressively worse through the day which she decided I was just looking for drugs. If nothing for the nurse spotting the rash while applying a lidocaine patch it wouldn’t have been diagnose. 6 months later my husband was in the ER for severe chest pain. She came in and with out examining him launched into a speech about how cocaine can cause chest pain. My husband has never done drugstore in his life and never been to this hospital before. Come to find out after being told he was fine and sent home we both tested positive for Covid WHY this woman is still allowed to practice is beyond me! Good luck with the pile of lawsuits Milford!

My foot was is sever pain for 2 days. I went to the ER because I could not put any weight on my foot and could not sleep at night. The hospital was not busy and the nurses were great. The doctor on the other hand did not even take time to look at it. She said it looked fine ( it was red and swollen). She said to take ibuprofen and make an appointment with a podiatrist. I can not get an appointment for over a week and the pain and swelling is just getting worse. Probably my worst and most useless visit to the hospital ever. The nurse took more time looking at my foot then the doctor.

blood pressure over 200, blood sugar almost 500, was not treated. Not emergency???

terrible bed side mannersgets angry easilydoesn't know how to relate to children

I just had open heart surgery when after 9 days post-op I woke up with one side of my face unable to move, couldn't blink etc. My mother drove me the hospital where I met with my cardiologist who immediately sent me to the ER to rule out a stroke. Dr. Connolly was the ER doctor. She greeted me as if she could care less. At one point, my mother asked her who she was because she didn't present herself in a professional, kind way. At one point she listened to my heart and said I could breathe in better even after I told her my incision site was still painful. In the end I was diagnosed with Bell's Palsey, a benign condition that was probably caused by the trauma of my surgery and usually gets better. To make this experience even worse, she informed me that emergency rooms are made for emergencies and my condition was not an emergency. Let me remind you, my cardiologist sent me there!!! I quietly left the ER, laid down on the curb (can you believe it??) and waited for my mom to get the car… and left the hospital.
