It baffles me when people "rate" a doctor without explaining themselves. Dr. Flavin is polite, respectful, a GREAT listener, and extremely reflective in evaluating symptoms and suggesting remedies. He takes a rather no-nonsense approach in his questioning and he has a keen sense of humor. He is certainly trustworthy, and although not exactly "talkative," he will readily answer any questions asked of him. He certainly provides adequate time for his patients.

Dr. Flavin is very soft spoken and can be sort of abrubt about things at appointments which can be off putting to some. I have been to about 18 appointments in 5 years due to a medical condition and recommended him to a friend now sees him. I always went prepared for the appointment. Had questions/concerns written down and was ready to give him a general description on how my health was since the previous appointment. He was always very helpful in response and provided excellent care!
