Patient Comments
April 26, 2019
[...] I didn't like being told things I was diagnosed with she didn't believe I had but said no to doing the tests to either prove right or wrong. Hoping the tests are done after the initial ones are negative.

Very nice.

great
March 05, 2019
Dr. Flannagan was very honest however she routinely cut me off mid-sentence.
February 25, 2019
Dr. Flanagan is wonderful! She is compassionate, knowledgeable and approachable.
January 14, 2019
Very attentive.....have already recommended people to her & went to her because of an excellent recomendation from a patient of hers.

[...] She interrupted me, didn't listen to me, didn't show any interest or concerns in how I got there (to that appointment) or what my history or my family history was, and made incorrect assumptions as well as dismissed the information that I did give her as "normal". She did not have any interest in my lifestyle or diet, both of which have a big impact on my overall GI state. If she had spent a few minutes getting to know me, instead of making assumptions, she would have had a better overall picture of my concerns with my health, and how this has impacted my overall health and well being. When she decided she was done, she just walked out. I didn't even know the appointment was over and wondered if she was coming back. I think she spent a total of maybe 10 minutes with me.

Dr. Flannagan identified the medical issue on a Monday and fit me in for the endoscopy the following day. Extraordinary, really.
December 03, 2018
Wonderful doctor! It's a little future than I'd like to travel, but she is worth it. But I did leave the office not know what I can be doing in the mean time to help make my condition better in addition to taking medicine. that would be the only thing I'd say would have made the appointment a perfect 10.
November 05, 2018
[...] Doctor showed little concern for what I had to say about why I was there. Often interrupted me. Only ordered a procedure when she saw how concerned I was. Will not be back. Have asked my PCP to refer me to another specialist. She sure didn't have the skill or bedside manner of my previous Allegheny Health Network gastroenterologist.
October 18, 2018
Dr. Flanagan was amazing. She was pleasant, supportive, sensitive and knowledgeable.
October 12, 2018
The dr. was very knowledgeable & professional.
September 05, 2018
She was very through and friendly.
September 04, 2018
I felt like the doctor talked down to me and seemed irritated with me within 2 mins.of talking with her. I felt upset after leaving the office and will follow-up with another doctor.
August 22, 2018
Dr. Renee Flannagan in my opinion looked at my age (33) and symptoms on a checklist and blew me off. She came across as condescending and arrogant. I was trying to explain my health and symptoms over the last year. She cut me off rather quickly. She clearly didn't care and gave me a generic diagnosis that I'm sure my GP would have given and could have saved me the time, money, and the referral to her office. [...]
July 10, 2018
Dr. Flannigan actually had a personality. Some doctors explain things but they don't have personality. I loved her
June 25, 2018
I've had stomach problems for years and had been with a different provider through Excela. After just 1 visit with Dr. Flanagan, she determined the problem (via the x-ray prescribed and performed on the same day in the hospital) and the following day, I received a call from the nurse with the x-ray results/treatment recommended. The doctor was friendly, compassionate, and responsive.
