Best Legacy practice and doctor I've ever worked with - and I've worked with many over the years. Most professional and well managed medical office I've ever experienced.

I am very comfortable talking yo Dr Halpin & know I will respect her medical advice.

The doctor is very knowledgable but I feel she has poor listening skills and is rigid in her thinking. She is also not very welcoming or supportive, and spends 90% of the visit time looking into/working on her computer rather than conversing with me. This is extremely off-putting.
