Dr. Dennis O'Conner is a brilliant, middle-aged family physician. He has solved my problems with GERD, high cholesterol, depression, and other minor medical needs. He is particularly interested in avoiding illness; his talents in the area of preventative medicine are superb. I am on an exercise program, a cancer-watch program, heart-health monitoring, and find consultations with him to be very cordial and solution-based. Above all, Dr. O'Conner is up-to-date and he practices what he preaches: He recently ran a marathon! He is an incredible find in this small community. It is no surprise that he is the director of the local hospital.
