    Respects MY wishes regarding MY treatment decisions. Offers solution information without the "strong arm" and " assumption"s". Does not judge, she is open and accepting of my feelings, beliefs, and decisions.

    Very caring but it seems as if she's aping things others have told her to say. Personal opinion.

    Dr. Kerrigan is amazing. She takes the time to explain all the test results and listens to any concerns I may have.

    Dr. Kerrigan is very good. She explains what is going on and carefully explores my reaction to treatment at every visit. Then she modifies the plan accordingly. She reviews lab results and gives me unsolicited feedback about the tests and what they mean for my treatment plan. When I reach out via email, I get a response within hours.
