Dr. McGivern is completely uncaring, has no regard for patient convenience or preferences, and is quick to prescribe with no explanations. She talks down to patients, even when they are educated on their medications and conditions. Her office staff does not answer the phone, and it is difficult to get in contact. It's hundreds of dollars for a 5-minute appointment with her before she jumps off the phone without answering any questions. I would not recommend her to a single person.
After 30+ years of symptoms, I found Dr. McGivern who diagnosed me correctly. She is firm, and can come across as cold; however, she is actually very warm and caring. She is extremely knowledgable but is willing to admit when she is confused. I referred another person to her, and he agrees with me. Her correct diagnosis and true meds have kept me sane, if not having saved my life.
I’ve been seeing Dr. McGivern for for 6 years after being referred by a friend. I’ve always felt heard and never rushed, which was a common experience with previous doctors. I’ve since referred multiple friends who have also referred more people to her - everyone has had positive, helpful experiences. She is direct, but caring which I greatly appreciate in doctor-patient relationship.
Dr. McGivern is very quick to size you up and push medications on you without listening to your questions and concerns. I felt worse after seeing her than I did before. Not recommended.
I would NOT recommend Dr. McGivern. My husband was a kidney donor, and she did not have a blood panel done before putting him on Depakote, which is just one step down from lithium. When he started to get sick from the medication, she didn't even talk to him personally before switching it, still no blood panel. The office then took $200 from our bank account with no notice to us before we had a chance to send payment in (it was not over 30 days).
Dr. McGivern was recommended to me. She is reasonably qualified and friendly but a bit cold. She is very quick to form opinions based on little information and suggest meds but does not do very well listening to patients or explaining her decisions. She diagnosed me with a disorder which I do not have and only found out about later through my therapist. She also accused me of being there just for "hits" of a medication after I had asked for other options to help manage my anxiety.
I've been a patient of Dr. McGivern for 17 years. She's there for me when I need her. I'm confident she'll help me in any way she can.
I was hospitalized for a short term in December.I was an existing patient of Dr. McGivern and was referred to her office for follow-up. We were running approximately 10 minutes late. She refused to see me.She then had her secretary call and leave a voicemail saying I should find a new doctor because she does not deal with persons with psychosis. Nobody appreciates being hung out to dry at their lowest point. I believe that was truly unprofessional.
