SHC Patient, Jun 2015
She is very friendly & concern with my health problems.
SHC Patient, May 2015
Absolutely love Dr. Flavin. She is knowledgeable, good sense of humor, great "bedside manner."
SHC Patient, May 2015
This was my first visit with Dr. Flavin. I have a rare medical condition, which she was not familiar with, and she freely admitted that. So this appointment was primarily for her to meet me and ask me questions, as well as to give me referrals.
SHC Patient, Mar 2015
She is very enthusiastic. Some of her advice was well intentioned, but not really relevant to my current situation.
SHC Patient, Mar 2015
I felt a little pressed for time. They all seem to watch the time a bit.
SHC Patient, Feb 2015
Dr. Flavin is the best psychiatrist I have had. She is kind & caring & really listened to my questions & concerns.
