Dr Dolan misdiagnosed my migraines and brushed off all my symptoms and complaints. Just like many other reviewers, I was offered prescriptions. After my symptoms continued to get worse and I started to have issues with my vision, I asked for imaging to figure out what might be causing my problems. He refused to order imaging stating the only thing we would see is 'the inside of my wallet'. So I went to my eye doctor who evaluated me and found a problem with my optic nerve- he sent me immediately to the ER for an MRI where I ... read more
Very patronizing refused to acknowledge the symptoms I was having. Gave his 10 minute evaluation and told me to go back to my primary Dr. My referral actually came from another neurologist who was 2 hrs away and it was becoming to much for me to see her still. If he had actually read my file either during or before the appointment he would have known this. Rather then just assuming I made up the symptoms in the office lobby. Stay away from at all costs.
Dolan is full of himself. He was 30 minutes late to a 60 min appointment. He started lecturing me about the condition, which he clearly knew little about. I cut him off as rudely as he was to me and said that i already knew everything he was saying. That got his attention, but he had nothing further to add. His answers to important questions are generic and superficial. We have no other choice but to see him, but if we could leave, we would. His office staff are awful too.
I only had one visit and I doubt I'll be back. He tended to dominate the conversation, seemed rushed and irritated by my questions, was very quick to make a significant diagnosis, would not discuss alternative medicine at all (which I am dependent on for my treatment-resistant grand mal epilepsy), and hastily prescribed medicine that I decided not to pursue after researching it. Thank goodness I have a great PCP who is helping me sort this out. Dr. Dolan sort of reminds me of PC Principal!
I have had my appointment bumped three times. It was supposed to be March. Then May, finally they said October. I have lesions on my brain. I could be dead by October. Thoroughly disgusted with this practice. Save yourself some time and find a different doctor.
This doctors action were completely inappropriate. He walks in the room and literally gives me a head to toe and then states he likes my clothes. I just stared at him in disbelief at that point. He continues his "exam" Ill call it which consisted of him staring at my chest. Ill be finding another Dr at this point. There is no way I will subject myself to this man again. I passed the nurse on the way out and said something. She apologized for his behavior and suggested another neurologist.
Dr. Dolan met with me (I was a patient) for under 15 minutes in an appointment for a head injury (as confirmed by several doctors) from a car accident I was in. He then told me he cannot help me as the pain is because of my “Bipolar Disease.” As well as implied I had the “luxury” of feeling pain. Never in my life have I been so insulted. I do not recommend Dr. Dolan.
He made me wait about an hour and when he did show up he didn't do his homework to even know what I was there for. He's a joke
After obtaining a second opinion from another neurologist diagnosed me with stocking vibratory and sensory cold temperature loss, Romberg sign, & tandem imbalance. Along with subclass immunoglobulin deficiencies supportive of a connective tissue disease and combined variable immune deficiency syndrome compared to the cursory testing done by Dr Dolan. I dont know how he possibly could have missed all this except for flat out not caring.
