Dr. Kerrigan still has that ¿new doctor smell!¿ In other words, her enthusiasm to take care of her patients is very evident during my interactions with her. She didn't rush or act put out by my questions or observations. Very refreshing personality and her commitment to do her very best is evident!
Dr. Karrigan provided me with the results she had available in an easy to understand fashion. She was not able to talk to me re my chest CT because the results had not been provided at the time of the appointment. The results indicated a possible issue that would have been discussed if the results of the CT were available at the appointment. I have not heard from anyone about the results. I trust I will be contacted to discuss the results in a timely manner.
Dr. Kerrigan takes her time with you, asks pertinent questions and gives good thoughtful feedback.
