I have seen Dr. Penny for 14 years and he literally saved my life. When I first saw him, he knew I was over medicated and transitioned me to a different medication combination and it made all the difference in the world. I was no longer a zombie and felt as though I got my life back. On the rare occasion I had an emergency I was able to be seen that day. He doesn’t conform to fad treatments and will work diligently to find the best treatment. His office manager isn’t just a “secretary” as one reviewer referred to her as - sh... read more

I would not recommend Dr. Penny to anyone ! And I mean ANYONE !! He charged me $125 not the $60 it was supposed to be for appt. since I went 5 minutes over the allotted time ( he failed to tell me time was up as we talked about current issues in society outside my condition). I was completely shocked and let the receptionist know this in a firm but very calm manner as I was leaving. Well as I was discussing this with her, Dr. Penny all of the sudden loudly yells from the back of his office and says "I am not your friend , I ... read more

Dr. Penny has been treating me for 20 yrs +. I knew I wasn't right. I would not be as well as I am now without him and his staff. I am never ignored. He even has my husband come in when I can't make sense. He genuinely cares. He's not always conventional but it works. He will use whatever medication that he knows will work. Old, New, he will always follow up. I trust him with my life everyday. I have suffered for years but he is always there when I need him. I fight to stay alive everyday.

Dr. Penny is great and very knowledgeable. Unfortunately his receptionist/gf is super unfriendly. If you need her to call the pharmacy she will charge you $30-60, even though I thought that's in a receptionist job description. During my last visit she tried to charge me for a missed appt, that I didn't miss, so I decided to quit seeing doctor Penny after 2 yrs. Also you don't get appointment reminder calls which is a first to me, and you have to pay w/ a check even though it's XXI century.

Dr. Gary Penny is the most dedicated physician that I have ever had the good fortune to be in contact with; he is compassionate & knowledgeable & perhaps the most intelligent man I have ever known (yet not egotistical or conceited in any manner). I am amazed at his willingness to use every bit of his skills & abilities to his patients' benefit. I rarely have ever waited more than 15 minutes for my appointment.
