Dr. Deborah Mulligan, MD

Didn't listen very well and wasn't empathetic to specific concerns. Dr. Mulligan insisted the diagnosis was likely Covid based on some online decision tree tool and despite direct exposure to Strep and despite negative Covid testing. Went to see regular in-person doctor today that confirmed Strep which is what we had tried to actually have Dr. Mulligan address. She tried, but frustrated with lack of listening and empathy from Dr. Mulligan for the actual concerns we presented. It is possible that something else is going on besides what an online decision tool is telling you.

I saw this provider through my health insurance, and it was a waste of 5 minutes. She is fat-phobic and condescending. She saw a list of my medications and decided she knew more than the doctors who are managing my other illnesses. In case she reads this, when someone sees you for a skin infection, stay in your lane! Especially if you haven’t taken the time to get the patient’s history.

I usually don't write reviews for healthcare providers, but my experience with Dr. Mulligan was so bad that I feel obligated to dissuade others from seeing her. First, the wait time on MD Live was unusually long - I almost cancelled my appointment because I thought she wouldn't show. Second, when we finally connected, Dr. Mulligan was condescending, snarky, and unhelpful. I was immediately put off by her attitude and decided I would seek help elsewhere. I am surprised and disappointed that someone like her is allowed to see patients.

She and her company MD live are scams

Had video visit over MDLive. At the beginning of explaining what was going on with me, she cut me off to answer phone regarding a plumber (note she was very frustrated on the phone call). Then she asked me to start over and not long after cut me off again to tell me what she thought I should do. Maybe she would have had the same advice had explained everything, but it was obvious she was in a hurry to gift off the video. Between that and her already being frustrated at the beginning, it did not feel like she really cared all that much. Televisits should get the same professionalism and courtesy as in person one. But maybe she’s that way regardless.

Gave me a diagnosis that requires antibiotics. Talked on MDLive...Wouldn't prescribe the antibiotics the diagnosis said I needed. Told me to physically be seen. Financially couldn't afford it and used telehealth for this reason. She knew and was unhelpful, condescending and sarcastic when I claimed I've had an abscess before. I would personally avoid her like the plague. Maybe her accolades have gone to her head? Holding back something as simple as antibiotics to a patient with autoimmune genetic disorder and who has pain and relatives with strept throat. Terrible, doctors have GOT to start helping without stigma or assumptions. Stop forcing what you think is best for the patient onto the patient first. Begin weighing risks to benefits first then make an educated decision. I now have a newborn susceptible, no transportation and nothing to take to help in the meantime. Horrible -10 stars. Shouldn't practice medicine.

Found her analysis to be not so useful (beyond what I could find from Google). She wasn't helpful and didn't give me much guidance. Doctors like Deborah are the reason I and many others have a distinct distrust of the medical community. I spoke to another doctor immediately after and got much better results. I felt grateful to pay her. I felt robbed to pay Deborah.

Dr. Mulligan was kind, attentive, reassuring and conservative in her approach to treating me during the tele-health visit. She explained why she was choosing the treatment she recommended and was prompt in following up with prescribing what I needed. I would seek her advice out again if needed.

Had the pleasure of Dr. Mulligan on MDLive. Such a kind woman, who took the time to listen and review photos of my two year old! Pink eye from her cold it is, meds sent right over to my pharmacy and even followed up with me via messaging after! Class act for sure!

Awful, unprofessional, did not listen at all and only told me what could not be done. When I asked her for a helpful recommendation on what I could do, she told me in an argumentative tone of voice what could not be done. I would never recommend her.

I had the privilege of getting Dr Mulligan on MDLIVE and I was very impressed. She took the time to listen to my complaints and diagnose me accordingly. She also took special care to recognize that I am growing a tiny human!

This woman is an absolute psycho. When I discussed common cold and flu symptoms with her and told her I simply could not just lay around and hydrate because I have a job and responsibilities she then told me, “well then you’re going to be just like the rare cases we read about in the newspaper”......insinutating my symptoms would result in death. I have reported her and have an open case with the board and will be getting weekly updates. Seriously this woman shouldn’t even have a license.

Horrible. I question which school have granted her license to practice?. I have seen her on MD-Live.She is just waste of time and money. She never listen you your symptoms and she runs to her own conclusions. She have to be re-educated on newst guid lines of treating upper respiratory infections and acute Bronchitis and lines of treatments.I definitely DONT recommend her or her service at all.

Know it all doctor who doesn't listen to HISTORY when you know your body. Tells me something is viral when I'm PRONE to re-occuring sinus infections, son ALSO HAS SINUS INFECTION, I have a FEVER and again have ALL THE SIGNS OF EXACTLY THIS. Tells me have a good day, takes my $40. Guarantee I'll miss work this week and be going to someone WHO CAN HELP ME.

Outstanding. First time using MDLive and was fortunate enough to be connected to Dr Mulligan. Listened to my symptoms, took time to explain diagnosis and send in prescription. THANK YOU

Horrible. There should be an option to give zero stars. I have the same experience as others who had the unfortunate luck of speaking with her on MDlive. She would not stop talking to listen to my symptoms (nor did she even ask how I was feeling, ever) and at the end she refused to tell me her name again and hung up on me.

MD Live. She was horrible. She didn't listen to my symptoms, Made assumptions to my symptoms that I told her were not accurate, Told me that even w signs of infection she would not do anything to treat them and I should see a doctor. Thought I was. I told her I was prone to sinus infections. The entire time she appeared preoccupied and was not listening to me. I wasted money and to make a bad appt worst, she hung up on me in the middle of the appointment. No antibiotic or treatment suggestion.

MD Live - waste of time and money. Was annoyed when I asked questions and seemed like I was taking too much of her time and rushed me off the phone and did nothing for me.

Dr. Mulligan shows genuine caring for the patient. She listens, takes time to explain treatment carefully to ensure it is understood.

Dr Mulligan is extremely knowledgeable and professional. Her genuine and caring attitude was exactly what I was looking for in a Primary care doc. We could use more physicians like her these days!
