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.

Definitely get a second opinion
The bottom line is I was not given all treatment scenarios. I thought a surgical oncologist was a good choice. I only wish I would have met with my oncologist prior to surgery. If I had, I can honestly say I NEVER would have had a double mastectomy. I find Dr. Kelly to be abrasive, unapproachable and egotistical.

Dr. Kelly and her staff need to review courses on compassion and sympathy. If unable or unwilling to explain a cancer diagnosis and various treatment options, have another staff member available. A patient should NEVER be made to feel incompetent or wrong for asking for clarification and reasoning of surgical procedures. A truly excellent doctor will NEVER deny their patients the necessary information and will always ensure understanding to make the best decisions in their care. Dr. Kelly will never be an excellent doctor.

Nothing can prepare you for that call that tells you that you have cancer. Especially the same type of cancer that took your own mother and at the same age that she was when she died. Dr. Trish Kelly was very direct, kind, knowledgeable and thorough. She gave me ALL of my options and made me comfortable. She encouraged me to be active in my plan.nurse, Barbara was there to work out the anger, fear and tears. Her staff,Becky, understood that it was overwhelming & appts and referrals. 5 yrs health

I have been seeing Dr Kelly for about 5-6 years. She is extremely helpful when explaining my medical condition and is always able to respond to any questions that I may have. I feel comfortable when seeing her.
