Dr. Timothy Gerard Ocallaghan, DO

I have to agree with the other two reviews. Moody, aloof. I am a nurse with more then 45 yrs experience in IC/CCU and ER, and found the care and bedside manner atrocious. Moved to Ludington from GR, and very little choices in finding offices that would take new pts. on medicare. My yearly physical needed to renew my meds...less then 2 minutes listening to lungs, heart. That is all that was done. No clothes removed, no gown on. Took an ER doc to tell me I had a mole on my back that should be checked. Most of the time spend in the room with doctor at the computer. I told office manager that I spend more time accessing my pts in Icu with their hourly checks then doctor did on my yearly examins. He told me I was a non-compliant pt. because I didn't want the flu shot, and because I was really struggling to quit smoking...and because of that he would not allow any of the other doctors in the practice to see me to write a script even thur I only had a two day supply after a hospital… admission out of state. The hospital had made an appointment for me before I was discharged for follow-up. When I went for appointment, they said I didn't have one. Showed the card from my discharge, stated I only had enough meds for resp. treatments to last that day...they still refused to allow another doctor to write a script even tho I had my discharge papers with me that told what my discharge meds were..and they could have verified it thur Walgreens...All in all, very unpleasant experience. My husband really liked Dr...My husband has Alz.

I had a cat scan on the 31st they said my results should take 3 days. its now 3 months and i keep calling. Dr hasnt got to it yet.I once scheduled an appointment, dr went on vaca so they rescheduled me for the 9th. they called me day before to remind me i even have it written on calender and when i went in they said i had no appointment. they said dr is gone. so i resceduled again and got to see him.I had breathing problems, a urinary problem and thyroid. He was on his computer the hole time never really checked me. he set up test for my cat scanned. uped my dose for thyroid even though he never even checked my blood or asked me questions of symptoms and always ignored my urinary problem. I switched doctors. i went to see chris in hart. right away they found out i had a uti, they checkd my blood levels and gave me diagnoses. chris in hart was the most accurate, detailed and thorough dr ive had. Im so sick of drs not doing there job.why go to college to become one if youre not going to… learn anything.

Doctor has mood swings as I was in a very bad accident where theremany things that is going on . Not just one or two things so as I try to work with him some times he would understand but other times he had no clue as to help me with what I needed from this accident . Came in to see him when he was having a bad day I guess that just left me hanging in bigger troubles with cronic pain .Then having high blood pressure from this accident that for years he insurance would have to pay then one day he just stop to say no to the medication that was cover but in his mood that day not anything was cover to him . he has had troubles in his office when he had Dr. John Cooney there where people from our town would here that there was troubles that was said that Dr. Tim gave Dr. John a hard time so he left out of town . So at that time comming in to that office you would see one of the two doctors That are both Do's . Take this rumor but there are people that works at the Hospital that… has told this . It has been said that Doctor Tim & his wife Mary that is a Doctor as well get into fights then it can be taken to the office where the patients may have troubles But also he has been very good to others too. Just got never know what mood you may get .
