I first saw Dr. Murphy in March after several months of seeing a different doctor that would not listen to a word I said, much less try to help me. Dr. Murphy was a wonderful change. On my first visit, he looked through my extensive records and listened to everything I said first. He took his time with me to understand my history and the treatments that had been done previously before making any kind of recommendation or plan for my further care. Having been seeing Dr. Murphy for several months now, my quality of life has greatly improved. Dr. Murphy always takes the time to listen and answer any questions I have. I have never had a better doctor. I would absolutely recommend Dr. Murphy to anyone.
