How likely are you to recommend Dr. Flynn?
ER visit at S.Y. Cottage Hospital for elevated blood pressure, rapid heart rate. The whole ER staff was wonderful and caring and Dr. Flynn could not have been nicer! He was caring and re-assurring and conscientious in his evaluation and treatment. He also is very charismatic! ER visits aren't on my bucket list, but knowing Dr. Flynn has a wealth of experience in the ER, I won't be so hesitant the next time I have an issue! He truly was great as were the two nurses attending, Debbie and Else!
