Dr. Corey is the most caring doctor I've ever had. She always listens to everything I have to say about my health. She always thinks about it. She always responds. If she doesn't respond the same day at our office visit, she always gets back to me. Anytime I have questions throughout the year, I can always send her a message and she always gets back to me very promptly. My experience at Mass General is always good.

Dr. Corey is my favorite doctor. She looks at all aspects of my care as it relates to my liver and GI. She looks at all the tests and everything from the last year from all doctors and is very good at being holistic and looking at all the possible outcomes.

For my next appointment i need a special test not available at M.V. Hospital. Dr. Corey informed me of places on the Cape that can handle that test. At the moment, yesterday,I had a Prostate Artery Embolization,so that test is on the back burner. My main concern is my Prostate issue and doing what it takes to get a final resolution.

My doctor not only is an active listener, she explains things in a way that is easy to comprehend. She demonstrates patience, compassion and positivity. She personally accompanied me to her scheduler and issued clear instructions for the scheduler to follow. She made me feel better emotionally. I recommend her without reservation.

I've seen Dr. Corey now for almost, I think, two and a half to three years. Every single interaction that I've had with her only instilled more confidence in myself, my health, Dr. Corey, and my care overall at MGH. I couldn't ask for a better provider. I couldn't ask for a better hospital. And with all gratitude for Dr. Corey and the entire GI team, including the nurses, the assistance over there. I really appreciate the care and I always feel that I'm the luckiest guy with these GI problems to have such an amazing care team around me. Thank you and have a nice day.

I've been seeing Dr. Corey for 10 years and appreciate her knowledge immensely. She is very kind and personable. Unfortunately, she was not available for my procedure 2 days later. As a result, another MD did the procedure, which went fine. However, as often happens, there is inaccurate documentation of the reason for the procedure with a misdiagnosis that Dr. Corey would not have documented. Inaccuracies in my medical records have been a concern for me in general, but not due to Dr. Corey's treatment.
