Need to have more appointment slots for this provider


Apr 5, 2022

Always a great staff & Dr. O'Brien is the best!

The staff is very nice and helpful. Dr. O'Brien is very kind and professional. He takes the time to listen to you as well as explain as clearly as possible what you need to know. He takes the time to ask if you have questions and answers them to the best of his knowledge. Both he and his staff make me feel better and at ease with my upcoming procedure that needs to be done. I'm still nervous but I know I'll be okay with them taking care of me.

So appreciate of Dr. Obrien and Gasterology Department. As a new patient, all of my concerns were well addressed. Felt taken care of with kindness, professionalism, and a listening ear. My plan of care going forward gave me reassurance. Thank you.

I can't express how very much I appreciate that Dr. O'Brien takes the time to explain how he reaches his conclusions. It shows respect for the patient and, frankly, gives me a lot of assurance and comfort. He takes his time, and I never feel like I am getting the bum's rush. He apologized because he was behind in getting to me--that was very thoughtful. However, I know things happen with other patients that are unavoidable and cause delays, and I did not mind at all. It just means he would take the time with me, too, if needed. All in all, he is amazing!
