Dr. Lilligren - NO bedside manner, always rushed around - asked for my one and only sono-gram and he seemed agitated to even do it - i think he has since retired, GOOD! - would not recommend, wasn't there for my emergency labor/delivery - Dr. Felix Sanchez was on-call and delivered my baby - i wished he had been my GYNO the entire time

Dr Lilligren needs to take a refresher course in bedside manner. While not unfriendly or rough, he is not a tender or compassionate physician. Trying to ask him detailed questions about HCG levels or ultrasound images will likely only elicit a one or two sentence response in a brusk manner without any explanation. His personality will not work well with educated parents to be who bring with them a myriad of questions. His actual examination technique is a bit rough and he does not seem to notice that at times, more tenderness is called for. It also seems as if he has an internal timer for each patient that maxes out at about 15 - 20 minutes. During a major traumatic decision in my pregnancy, he delivered the news as if he was ordering his next mocha at Starbucks. I realize that physicians need to remain calm but he can make you feel as if you are the next part on the assembly line. He makes a strong case for only allowing women to enter the OB/GYN speciality.
