I made my appt some time ago but I don't recall any problems. I don't want to say anything bad about Dr. O'Shea but he told me to call him when test results came across My Chart. I did. I have not received a return phone call as of yet.

I'm sure Dr. O'Shea is a very intelligent doctor. His bed side manner leaves a lot to be desired. I have no doubt he knows what he is talking about. I feel he talks about the wrong things. I realize he needs to make me aware of any complications I can have down the road.But I would appreciate if he would give me some encouragement when there is some good news. He is way too blunt saying right out I will die if I get a certain complication. He spent at least 20 minutes talking to my son explaining a genetic test I was going too have done. Way too technical for me and all I ask for is a little encouragement on the good news. I on the other hand love Donna Oliver NP. She is wonderful. I'm sure she is very intelligent and knows how to treat a patient.
