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.

I.can't.even. Do not go to this doctor!!!

I have been going to Dr. Sullivan for about 20 years. She is the first Doctor that I feel that each and everytime I go to her she is totally listening to what I tell her. She is unbelievably patient and caring/

My primary care retired after having her for thirty years and I was given Dr. Sullivan by my insurance. Although it can be harder to get an appoint with her specifically, when I was able to see her I found her to be very intelligent, knowledgeable, and very nice. She likes to explain everything which I find a very good quality for doctors, she cares if you understand the things she is explaining and take the time if you need more information.

She's intelligent obviously, but classless and unprofessional. Makes you feel like you are an idiot and being a burden. The secretaries are worth laughing at and they feel entitled to do whatever they please. However, the nurses are awesome.

I was assigned Dr. Sullivan at the beginning of this year [2017] with the start of my new health insurance plan. I called her office to set up an appointment and even though she was/is currently "taking new patients" was refused care. I think it may be a blessing in disguise. I may have dodged a bullet here. I can't give Dr. Sullivan any "real" stars as I didn't get past the guards to even see her. What I can say is, calling her office was a waste of my time, just short of a joke.

The receptionists are friendly but I feel like I'm always on hold when I call. Could just be a busy time of day. The nurse that works there is rude and seems hostile. I feel as though my concerns are not being taken seriously and my concerns are shot down and I'm being told that I am being crazy because of my concerns.

I met Dr Sullivan to hopefully become my new primary care doctor. I needed to see her quickly because I had discovered a lump in my breast. To be fair, the front desk did get me in quickly to see her for that. But that is where anything good ended. I wound up diagnosed with breast cancer. And I have NEVER HEARD from the office about this. Thank GOODNESS that the radiologist was able to give me a diagnosis and get me scheduled with a surgeon right away.
