  • very patient and thorough

  • A Senior Resident initiated the visit, Attending joined; it was a challenge to rehash chief complaint, reason for visit, as this was my 3rd visit; I appreciate the Brigham, it is my hospital of choice as I know the care/service provided to be excellent. I also know it is a teaching hospital. I wasn't expecting the resident to lead off the visit and was dismayed by the visit being longer than expected. I trust my care to Dr V, who is wonderful; and while I appreciate residents, interns, students, and am happy to have them be present, I do not want to repeat old history and reason for follow up for the benefit of a student or new provider. That said, Dr V leads a lovely team of dedicated clinicians

  • Dr. PM is incredibly thorough, thoughtful, very good listener, provides suggestions, and always, always has a good recommendation for me to follow up on. She also prescribes tests and referrals when needed. One of the best doctors I've ever been exposed to at Brigham or at Mass General. I've been exposed to quite a few and they're very, very, well, she probably rates number one. There aren't too many that would even reach the top five. So definitely highly recommend a professional. Can't say enough good things about the doctor. Thank you, [redacted]

  • Dr. Piam is one of the most compassionate doctor. Always greets you with a smile and listens to you carefully before allowing a resident to examine. Later she herself carefully examines the patient all the while explaining what she is going to do. When she suggests a treatment she is open to the concerns and feelings of the patient and works to get a solution that works. She also responds very quickly to questions even on weekends. Her resident Dr. [redacted] was also very knowledgeable and compassionate while listening to me and explaining the treatment. The entire staff at this office is great. Thank you.
