In my opinion, Dr. Gray is one of the top doctors in Boston. She is smart, kind, and a true professional. I trust her, and I wish I could have her as my only doctor for all my medical needs.
Talk to the patient and spend more than 10 minutes (including a procedure) with the patient. Consider what the patient says re: past history of what has worked in the past to allieviate the problem.
I was anxious to get an appt with Dr. Gray and she was kind, so knowledgeable and listened to my concerns. I'm happy to have her for my doctor! I felt calm and comfortable, which doesn't happen often in a doctors office!
Everything went fine but I was a little disappointed in not having more alternative therapy options to treat my issue (cyst in sinus) [redacted]
Every single person from the receptionist to the doctors in that office are the nicest people! I've been going there for years and it's always the same! I can't rave enough about them all!
Always professional.
I was treated respectfully, listened to intently and addressed warmly.
I feel fortunate to have seen her as a provider.
I am glad she is my doctor
Dr. Stacey Gray is outstanding. Care was excellent. She did not rush appointment. Staff and nurse also excellent.
