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.

Big needle, no problem!
The cortisone injection was hardly noticeable. I’ve had B-complex shots that hurt worse. It was done and over with in a second and I was still waiting for the pinch, which I never did feel. Dr Cahalan is masterful with a needle!

Well I was really nervous about getting a hip injection for the first time but he did it quick and correct and told me to breathe and that helped. The nurse helped distract me by being funny.

Wonderful Visit
I went to this appointment six weeks ago pain scale was off the chart. The doctor was professional, calm, and reassuring. I got an injection which I was scared of but it immediately decrease the pain. I’m following up today and I am still reassured of the office staff and the provider they are wonderful and it was crowded, but they diligently took us in and it didn’t take too long

Straight to the point
Dr. Cahalan came in knowing 100% the issue, my history with it, had a plan in place, and gave me time tables on when to expect things. Definitely needed this sort of no nonsense approach and it was very much appreciated.

Top level provider
This office is very efficient. I was in and out in 40 minutes while checking in, getting x-rays and seeing Dr. Cahalan. He was caring, very attentive to my needs and explained his recommended treatment plan. This is what the medical profession should look like. Cannot give him and his office a high enough rating. A plus

Shoulder injury
A week or two ago I fell off my bicycle and injured my left shoulder. I came for an x-ray about a week ago To determine if anything was broken. I was told to come back this week if the pain hadn’t subsided. Dr. Cahalan Recommended a shot and some physical therapy and a return visit in six weeks if the pain remained. I initially didn’t think a shot was a good idea, and he patiently explained to me why he thought it was a good idea. And it made sense to me.

Yesterday was my initial consultation with Dr Cahalan. He was prompt, friendly, and very informative. He reviewed my MRI findings with me line by line in an easy to understand manner, and he provided me with a reasonable and straightforward treatment plan.

Dr Cahalan was amazing
The doctor was very thorough in his exam, his explanation on what the problem was along and what the treatment plan. I got an injection and he advised what he was doing step-by-step no matter how small it was. he was very personable and pleasant throughout my entire visit. I did not feel like he was rushing through my appointment. He took his time and made sure he answered all questions.

A True patient’s Doctor
Dr Cahalan was engaged in my health issue. He answered all my questions & made suggestions. He never seemed anxious to end the visit as other patients were surely waiting. So easy to communicate with Dr Cahalan which made me completely at ease. I thought this would be a “one & done visit, but was so pleased Dr Cahalan set up a follow up appointment to check on my progress. Thank you, Dr Cahalan

Great visit
Dr Cahalan answered all of our questions and showed us the xrays on both shoulders so we could see the difference and really understand what was wrong. He seems to really care about my son getting rested and healing so we can get him back to baseball as soon as possible.
