He’s the best ! The office is terrific to deal with. If I ever need orthopaedics again, no doubt I’d go there. :)
Dr. Mullen is a great doctor!
Everything about Dr. Mullen and his team is exceptional. They took very good care of me and I’m home now with a lot less pain than I was expecting. The nurses were wonderful!! I was very impressed that Dr. Mule called my ride personally to let him know that I was OK. Everything about my surgery was very professional, and I was treated with a lot of care and respect.
Excellent Doctor
Superb surgeon, highly engaged with patients.
Dr Mullen is a great ortho doctor and his entire team is top notch
Beautiful compassion for my dementia patient. Great waiting room.
Thank you
Professional, yet friendly. Listens to me when I'm describing issues I'm having. Patient and kind. My Mom had several hip replacements, all ill-fitted until Dr. Mullen operated on her - no problems in many, many years. I trust Dr. Mullen and his opinion 100%.
Good communication, friendly, informative, spent time with me.
