I have a complex medical history and numerous medical problems. I think this provider had a difficult time understanding being that it was the first time he saw me. As has often happened in my life my frustration with my health problems is distracting to the doctor and then they don't get to the physical problems because they are distracted by my depression and anxiety about my physical health

Dr. Mulligan is doing a great job. I really appreciated his patience and concern on that first visit. He made me feel very comfortable and welcome to express myself freely and without judgment. He's also very attentive to my questions. I have asked him to be my primary care physician.

This screen doesn't show "Very Poor", "Poor", "Fair", "Good", "Great" or whatever it was. Just five buttons next to each category. I'm just running off what was presented on the last slides, sorry if they do not fit. Dr. Mulligan was pretty good about involving me in his care. He asked if I wanted Pulmonary Function Tests, and while I was going back and forth he suggested if I was "curious" about the results. I was indeed curious of the results of whatever would happen, so that really helped me make my decision to get those done. Pretty good at catching onto those things, as I had always wondered what my results would look like. In general, pretty good about involving myself in my care.
