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.

Dr. Hennessey is smart and he takes the time to listen. He stays up to date with latest science journals and tries to uncover what the underlying cause of your illness is He doesn't rush you or guess what is wrong with you. He listens and orders testing if necessary. I really like Dr. Hennessy and would recommend him to anyone. He helped, when every other doctor said I was just anxious and needed antacids and Xanax. He helped me uncover my celiac disease by knowing the right tests to order.

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Hennessey?
I have been taking my son to Dr. Hennessey for 10+ years. I recently quit seeing him after he insisted my son's Celiac Disease could be outgrown and that it is more of an allergy than anything. He actually recommended trying Gluten to see what would happen. His blantent lies and ignorance left me speechless. For someone who is "practicing" medicine, particularly immunotherapy, should know this is absolutely false. I no longer trust his judgement.

He is concerned about your health issues. He gets behind but the wait is worth it.
