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.

Lacking patience, consideration, and empathy. Sadly, our experience was very poor with Dr. O’Brien’s unwillingness to allow expression of opinions and working together as a team. Due to a minor misunderstanding of office expectations, our son was abruptly dismissed from her practice without warrant or a full explanation. We couldn’t be more disappointed in such harsh treatment from a doctor whom we thought to be a caring individual in hopes of placing our son’s well being as the main priority.

Dr. O'Brien was able to order extensive labs for me and has found the causes of my digestive and other issues. She is very caring, highly knowledgeable, and spends a great deal of time preparing and going over reports before she meets with me and all of her patients, which results in the health care plan that is needed for each. I have the highest regard and confidence in her as a Doctor and a person.

Don't expect a quick fix...but... DO expect warmth and attunement in a health care professional like you've never had before... DO expect feeling like you've got a wise coach on your side...DO expect that YOU have to focus and change some things in your health lifestyle, but that they're well worth the effort and time... As a 40-+ yr old mom that came presenting 'hormone issues' and has found relief, I highly recommend Dr. O'Brien for her kindness, communication, and brilliant analytical skills.

Dr. Tricia has changed my life! Never has a doctor taken the time to make sure I understood what is going on in my body. At every appointment she is engaged and excited! Always eager to celebrate my growth and ready to help me tackle new challenges. She has been the first doctor in my life to say WE are going to work as a TEAM and find the best course of action. She has delivered on every word! I finally feel like I am in control of my health.

Dr. O'Brien has been an outstanding doctor with my care. She always takes the time to listen to my countless questions, and I can tell she really cares for my well being. She was able to diagnose my illness where other doctors just wasted my time and money. I truly know I will have a brighter future because of relentless work ethic and tireless caring attitude. I'm truly grateful to have her as my doctor.

When I first met doctor O'Brien, it was like a breath of fresh air. I learned what my body does and doesn't do on it's own, and how to make food my friend instead of my enemy. She told me it would be hard work and she was right but feel like a brand new me! I have Dr O'Brien to thank for my new outlook on my health. I'm so thankful for her!!
