In patients' words

"Dr. Gaffney... goes above and beyond to extensively evaluate me, explain my disease process, and actually allow patient collaboration in treatment plans/approaches. Aside from this she makes me feel seen, heard, and valued... never rushes me."

WebMD review of Dr. Alexea Gaffney-Adams

"The only thing that could really use improvement is the wait time to see her. I'm always there for at least an hour when I have an appointment. But, in my opinion, Dr. Gaffney is worth the wait!"
