Dr O’Brien is super knowledgeable. He took time with me and described my condition using visual aids that were really helpful. I know he’s busy and in high demand, but he’s also friendly and approachable. He also looks to reduce medications where possible and suggests procedures and behavioral changes as alternatives to more medications. He’s been a bright spot helping me navigate an anxiety-provoking situation.
