Patient Reviews
Oct 07, 2021
Who wants to see a butt doctor? No one I know of, including me, but if you have to go, do yourself a favor and see Dr. Cavanaugh. I literally just left her office smiling. Not only was she extremely knowledgeable and thorough in discussing my condition (complete with fabulous illustrations) she’s warm, funny, and sensitive. She recognizes that most people don’t want to be there so she makes the visit much more than bearable. Her medical assistant Sam made me comfortable from the moment I walked in (when weighing in, we joked at how my sweater could possibly weigh 20 pounds ??) This team is truly top-notch. Dr. Cavanaugh was recommended to me and I’m so grateful. I’ve never liked a doctor or office visit more!
