He is always willing to listen to anything that I have to say.

04/21/2026

Nurse was efficient but not much on bedside manner

04/20/2026

Dr. Dempsey and his staff are very professional. From the check in, pre exam, and Dr evaluation it is obvious that they all care about their patients. I have had my share of medical encounters at my age, and I don’t give accolades easily. This group deserves them.

04/14/2026

The nurse asked him a question for me and he came in with the answer I needed to adjust when I took medication. He had reviewed my tests and told me everything was going well and to continue with what I was doing. It was the answer I was hoping to hear. since I had no more questions he left.

I've been seeing Dr. Dempsey for a number of years now. He saw me on an unscheduled visit when I had my heart episode. If not for his expertise and fast actions, my outcome would most likely not have been good. Some people might find him blunt, but I like to know exactly what is going on. He doesn't pull punches but is also very caring and listens!

01/29/2026

Basically nothing happens. A few tests are run and then looked at, and hopefully it will just go on this way.
