Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Seeming INCOMPETENCE
On 13 October 2022 my mother saw Dr. Brodnan for a routine visit. She had recently fallen and hurt her ribs, was in a lot of pain and very congested (I could hear it over the phone-- both in her voice and by her cough). He offered a prescription for X-rays. I have no idea what a routine visit entails, but I can only imagine that a pulmonologist would listen to someone's chest. The next evening, Friday the 14th, my mother was admitted to the ICU at Steward Hospital, where they put her on a ventilator and extracted 300 ml of blood from her left lung, which had partiallly collapsed. There was also air and fluids in her chest cavity. IMPOSSIBLE TO BELIEVE THAT A COMPETENT DOCTOR WOULD NOT HAVE DETECTED SOMETHING AMISS IN HER LUNGS.
