Don't be fooled by all the good reviews. Dr. Breen is incredibly disorganized. I went through so many months of suffering with zero relief even though towards the end I was meeting with Dr. Breen almost weekly (and spent thousands of dollars on treatment that didn't work!) She was insensitive and uneducated on my conditions which was damaging to my health.
She took weeks, if not over a month to respond to simple messages through her online portal (which is supposed to be a place for patients to get quick, timely, and helpful responses for important questions about their health).
Dr. Breen waited until over a month after she received my test results to finally let me know that I tested positive for a serious condition. (She didn't even mention it to me until the final 10 minutes of our appointment, leaving me scared and confused for weeks until I was able to see her again, and even then, NO RELIEF!)
She was AT LEAST 45+ minutes late to every. single. appointment. (Booked 2+ months out...) Her receptionists would interrupt almost every appointment to ask Dr. Breen for her Starbucks order, to bring her food, or to tell her she's running late and someone is upset with her. This would often turn into a full blown conversation with her receptionists (3-5+ minutes long) IN THE MIDDLE OF AN APPOINTMENT! You just have to sit there and wait for them to be done talking about their coffee. Talk about frustrating!
Dr. Breen was unwilling to work with me and my insurance to resolve an issue that prevented me from booking an appointment with a cardiologist (whom she referred me to in the first place!) I spent hours upon hours on the phone with my insurance and the cardiologist, all of whom told me that they needed Dr. Breen to send them paperwork before I could make the appointment. There was no way around it. After explaining this to Dr. Breen she snapped at me and said that if I wanted to see the cardiologist I had to figure it out myself! That was all I needed to hear to know I had to find someone else that would take me seriously.
Her receptionists seemed to be purposely ignoring calls from my phone number and only answered if I chose to call from a private number instead.
She had one of her nurses (who is trained to do cosmetic injections NOT IV's) give me a glutathione IV treatment. The nurse didn't know what she was doing, went too fast, and injected the glutathione into the tissue of my arm instead of my vein, leaving me with an inflamed & swollen allergic reaction.
If you have Lyme disease/SIBO/IBS or any other chronic condition, Dr. Breen is not a good choice. She acts more like a friend than a doctor (for example, showing me pictures of her dog in the middle of our already rushed appointments). After every appointment I was left feeling confused, frustrated, and lost. I was never taken seriously.
I am upset with myself that I put up with this maltreatment for so long! Don't make the same mistakes I did. read more
