I felt like she was rushing me through the appointment. She never told me whether or not I was diagnosed and then informed me over a message I was being treated for a condition I had mentioned in the appointment to which she had said she wasn't sure if I had or not but would send a test. She never gave me any information on the diagnosis or any alternate treatment options. She was only in the room with me for about 3 minutes while I was there and I felt like she didn't take my concerns seriously despite me expressing having dealt with symptoms for multiple years now.

I am not one to write reviews, but I feel that this needed to be flagged. I had a recent ER visit and my PCP suggested I get in with a specialist. In order to get in quickly, I took the first appointment I could get and got assigned to Dr. Mullaly. Seeing that I had a recent very intense ER experience where my pain was the worst I've ever experienced in my life, I was looking to gain insights into what could've happened and the best next steps for my care. I have never felt so dismissed by a doctor for simply asking a question and trying to explain my experience. Not only did she only spend 5 minutes with me where she basically talked at me the entire time, but every question that I asked was met with we don't have to do that. I was looking for a conversation to understand what was possible. I am not upset that there's nothing that can be done immediately, but that every question I asked was met with you don't have to do that, or that any details of what happened to me were met with dismissing language. Her notes weren't even correct about what had occurred, and it was clear to me that she didn't care about me or my body. She was only concerned with getting me in and out of the room. Additionally, I explained to her that I had a history of sexual trauma and wanted my partner to come into the room. She told me the exam wouldn't take long and that I didn't have to do it. I asked again and she kept saying the same thing. Instead of pausing and walking the 2 feet it would've taken to grab my partner, it felt that I was having to chose between receiving a full examination or passing. The fact that someone can be that dismissive after someone tells you they have trauma is shocking to me. During the exam, which I finally caved to do without my partner because it felt like I wouldn't receive the full care I deserve, she also didn't explain what she was about to do and it was incredibly jarring for my body. It was an absolutely horrible experience that I wouldn't want anyone else to experience. I will be finding a different provider.

Provider was very dismissive and condescending. My worries were made to feel less than. Pushed medication that I repeatedly refused to be on.

Dr. Mulally was very quick to push birth control on me as if she was in the pocket of the drug companies. When she asked for my reasonings not to be on birth control she was very dismissive. She also very nonchalantly mentioned that I could lose an ovary like it was something as simple and unnecessary as a tooth. If you want a doctor that will help find the root of the problem, she is not the doctor for you.

Dr. Mullaly is one of the first doctors I've experienced that is patient and listens to any concerns that I may be having. She ensures I have the proper information and waits to see what questions I have. She is attentive and understanding.
