Dr. Patrick Sullivan, MD

Has absolute horrible bedside manner and is extremely rude and not compassionate towards children. When my son was 5 and broke his arm they casted it and it swelled up and was causing him extreme pain, so we had to have it split. The orthotechs who split it held the friction saw too long in one spot and burnt my son. He was screaming “mommy help me, make them stop” and they kept telling me he was fine and he couldn’t be hurting he was only scared. Ended up taking 8 hours to split the cast and Sullivan refused to recast it and we had to go back every week to have it xrayed to make sure it was ok and still in place since they only wrapped the cast with an ace bandage to keep in place after they split it. My son got it wet and when I called to tell them he treated me like I was a horrible parent and needed to be better. Then when the cast was removed my son had approximately 1.5 inch long burn that was still an open wound on his arm where they indeed were burning him while he was crying!

Dr. Sullivan presented all my options clearly and allowed me to make an informed decision about my future care. His experience as a surgeon is comforting and I feel confident in a positive outcome.

Dr. Patrick Sullivan has replaced both my knees and completed a lateral release on the left one. I am very happy with the outcome of all three procedures. He is extremely professional and skilled. He listens and offers his perspective very well. I am happy to say he is a skilled and thoughtful surgeon.

Very attractive and professional.

He and his staff are excellent communicators and practice at the highest levels.

Dr. Sullivan and his team were all very caring and thorough when explaining my issue and proposed surgical plan. No pressure and willing to answer any and all questions we had.

He’s one of the best! Did my left in 2021 and my right in 2022- always answered my questions and gave great explanations of what would happen

Minimal bruising and pain was controlled. Dr is straightforward and gets to the point. Highly recommend.

Dr Sullivan explains what to exspect. The hip replacement went well and I am very pleased with the results. Dr Sullivan's team is the best.

Dr Sullivan treated me with respect answering all my questions every time I seen him before he left the room he ask me if there were anything else I was worried about he replaced both my hips and I couldn’t be happier

My hip is a work comp issue. Dr Sullivan has been great to work with helping me instead of worrying about the insurance company. Most importantly, he has my trust in caring for me. Also, Annie is great!

Recently went in to speak with Dr. Sullivan on a chronic knee issue. While he explained the issue to me, his overall bedside manner was very poor. He dismissed my concerns and said: "You'll just be in a pain often and have to live with it" and then acted like he couldn't leave the room fast enough, while pushing the nurses back in to talk to me instead. Would not recommend him to another patient.

Kudos to Dr. Patrick! As I went to see him about an orthopedic problem with my leg, I explained about some vascular problems I was having. He said before he would treat me for the joint problem, he want to have me see a vascular doctor. It turned out I had much more pressing issue with that. As also had an appointment with a cardiologist (blood pressure issue), and As I explained to her about the vascular problem in my leg, she informs me,"let's get back to cardio" and wanted more 'distractions'. How ironic! Thank you, Dr. Patrick!

Dr Sullivan doesn’t have much of a bedside manner and is very abrupt and seems in a hurry to get out of the room.

He doesn’t listen to the patient. I had my hip done and have had groin pain ever since. He said to me oh well, at least you don’t have back pain any more. I begged for Physical therapy and he said no need, keep walking. Finally went to my family doc who sent me to PT. I’m finally doing better and losing the groin pain after 4’years. Not going back to Sullivan

Dr. Sullivan was very good to me when I had bilateral knee replacement in 2016. He came to see me during my first couple days right after surgery, taking the time to actually sit with me and answer questions. He also came back another time during the initial recovery to see how well I was walking. He did two manual adjustments when I asked him to and saw me on two occasions when I was sure I had messed up my new hardware. I really do appreciate, too, that he agreed to do this surgery as another doc had told me he wouldn't do it until I lost more weight. Dr. Sullivan took one look at my X-rays and said "When do you want to do this? " I felt like he understood that I am a motivated person who would do everything I could, with swimming, PT, exercise, etc. to both recover and lose more weight. He showed the wisdom of being able to read and understand me as a person, as well as the most obvious fact that, of course, I couldn't go on with knees that could be felt & heard crunching!

Dr. Sullivan is a caring well educated surgeon. He spent time with my husband and me alleviating all concerns about hip replacement surgery. His staff was amazing.

I took a nasty fall in Sept and I knew immediately something was wrong. I was taken to ER and ER sent me home saying the x-ray on my knee came back normal. If it had not been for my husband telling ER off, I don't think I would have gotten in the next day with Dr. Sullivan. Dr. Sullivan knew I was in extreme pain, scheduled a MRI and was given pain pills that week. Went back Monday and was scheduled for surgery. Dr. Sullivan was kind and patient with me explaining what will take place.

I had a full hip replacement in November of 2015. Being only 42 I was very young and apprehensive about the surgery. Everything went perfect. Zero pain. I am stronger than ever. He helped me through the whole process and was very good at answering questions.

Dr has no bedside manner & very rude, abrupt has the superiority attitude. Doesn't talk to the patient instead talks to his assistant & makes his assistant give directions to the patient. Not coming back to this doctor & not recommending him to anyone.
