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.

This Doctor does not care. Office staff has to be followed up on to get anything done. 10/4 supposed to send info to Stanford. But not sent until 10/21. Asked for a copy of my records on 10/21. As on 11/4, the record company has not received the request. Medication has some serious side effects, went in to ask some questions, Doctor said I could "take it or don't". Doctor does not want to discuss other paths of treatment.

Very impressed
Only had one initial visit so far but Dr. Murphy was very thorough, listened, and is obviously a very caring person. Since then have called office staff who relay message to the doctor and reply promptly. Very pleased.

A blessing to the community
Dr. Murphy has literally been a blessing to this community and I hope we don't lose her like every other physician that gets established in this area. She is the only pulmonologist I could find in the area, and the most patient, and caring one I have been to. She is very knowledgeable and a very attentive and detail oriented physician. I feel very lucky that I was able to get into her. We need more good physicians on the central coast.

I was very scared with my illness which luckily flared up so she got to see what happens. She took her time, was thorough with me and is interested in working with my other dr.’s.
