Great appointment and my urgent needs were met, but the doctor was in and out so fast I didn't have time to ask questions.
This was so nice to be able to do a video conf w Dr McAlvany. I've seen her in office, but this was a nice change for a non urgent situation. She was very helpful.

Great appointment and my urgent needs were met, but the doctor was in and out so fast I didn't have time to ask questions.
I would not recommend visiting this doctor to anyone. She was too much in rush and didn’t answered any of my questions.
Verified patient
Super easy check-in, especially since I filled the forms out online beforehand.
She did not do what I asked her to do and I felt very rush! Horrible!
The doctor was great. It’s hard to find good desk staff.
I will be going back!
The de was not mean but man did she seem to be in a huge rush, from the second she entered the room. No hi, nice to see you, no niceties at all. Ok fine. No biggie! Barely looked at the mole on my daughters back! Literally glanced and looked awa y and said fine. Didn’t get out the magnifier or light or anything, barely even got close enough to examine it thoroughly. Cancer is no joke ans if like a bit more effort put into examining one, just 1! Mole she has that I needed looked at. She just seemed like she was dying to leave the room as soon as she came in. Not sure if it was just a super busy day or what.
Verified patient
Very short visit. The nurse/medical assistant barely said a word to me as she showed me to a room. The doctor came in for less than a minute and said she would send a prescription over to my pharmacy for my scalp issues that she never looked at. It’s been a month, still no prescription. Never again!
This was so nice to be able to do a video conf w Dr McAlvany. I've seen her in office, but this was a nice change for a non urgent situation. She was very helpful.
Verified patient
I loved the efficiency of this office and the kind staff. The doctor was in and out quickly which was fine for me today. I would hope that if I needed more time she would have given it. I appreciated how comfortable I felt the entire appointment.
