Ratings for Dr. Kathy E. O'Connell
Good doctor and staff. I highly feel that Courtney L. Weaver who’s a recruiter for Wells Fargo wrote negative review below. She a phony and can’t be transparent with people. My friend applied for a teller job and did a phone interview with Courtney which was like 30 minutes. Courtney told her “ oh you sound like a great candidate and we didn’t get many applicants at that location” ok, she basically was giving my friend high hopes towards the end of the phone interview then Courtney states “ oh I have like 4 other people to interview but your still a top contender “ again giving her high hopes. Mind you my friend was someone who was bullied and treated very poorly at many jobs she obtained through the years and she’s struggling to make ends meet and could face a foreclosure on her place. ( so she’s going through a rough time ) she did email follow ups with Courtney and Courtney seemed to make excuses that she needed to interview other applicants still. Courtney dragged this for 3 weeks ( making excuses ) this past week my friend emails her again and again Courtney tells her “ oh I have to hear from one more applicant then I will make a decision “ mind you 4 days go by my friend sends her another email and Courtney replies “ oh I’m sorry we hired another candidate and you should’ve gotten an email stating this “ well my friend didn’t get the email. So Courtney is a phony who can’t be transparent with people. Don’t tell someone they are a top contender and give them high hopes only to tell them “ oh we hired some one else” shows pure inconsideration. Don’t play games like that with people! Then on top of it Courtney tells her to apply at other locations. This Courtney has some nerve! Not cool playing games with very interested applicants who are going through a rough time
Dr. O'CONNELL is THEE BEST doctor EVER!!! She is very caring & compassionate. She is also a very good listener, which is very important. Her staff is Great too.
I have been Dr. Kathy O'Connell's patient since before she opened her own practice. She still shows the same love and compassion that brought me to her office the first time. All of the other doctors, nurses and staff have a common trait – THEY CARE. This is especially comforting to patients, like me, as I rely on them for their best medical advice. After all the faces and all the years, CARING still comes through.
I have been going to Womens Care since I had my first child 6 years ago and I wouldn't go anywhere else! They've preformed 2 c-sections on me so far and I'm track for another one. Most people would probably drag about having to have repeat c-sections but Dr. O Connell is great at what she does and she makes she feel comfortable about it.
Dr O'Connell is my Doc and she has been great with all the problems I have encountered over the yrs. My only complaint is there are never call backs when they say they will call. I called to get a pap appt and was informed by front office that she is booked up till aug 2013. I asked if they usually call or send a reminder to you close to when your due and she said oh no we have too many patients to do that. She said when you had your last pap someone should of asked you if you want to set up your next one. I told her no one did that and she was like well we rarely have new people up here so someone had to ask you. I told her no one did. She did offer for me to have a pap with another Dr in March or April. I said no thanks. I don't feel like being treated like a chart number when I go to my GYN. So when I put 1 for staff I am talking about the person i talked to today who was so rude. She did say Dr O'Connell is the most asked for in the practice.
Dr. O'Connell is fantastic. After going to two gynecologists who refused me treatment for my endometriosis because it would involve getting a hysterectomy and they didn't think I should have one at 31, she and her staff did a full exam and got me the help I needed. She understood the pain I was going through and helped me make appointments for a consult with a surgeon and lab work before I even left the office. Between her and my new surgeon, the damage my previous two doctors did is being reversed and my condition treated more than adequately.
Dr. O'Connell does NOT do abortions. Her office is a Christian office and she is a really excellent doctor. If not for her, my fourth baby would not even be here. I trust her implicitly and her office staff are excellent.
I saw Dr.O'Connell back in 1992. Dr O'Connell is a knowledgeable OBGYN. However, on the one hand she helps babies come into this world safely on the other hand she also performs abortions. I found this offensive and incongruous. Whatever happened to "Do No Harm"? I would hope that this situation has since changed. I recommend asking the office staff as I did.
