Liam A. Haveran's Online Review Report Card

I waited an hour to be seen. when asking the front desk they said he always runs late and they knew before I even checked in and never said anything, when I complained I was treated so badly. they make comments behind my back but loud enough for me to hear. then when I saw the doctor, he was so unprofessional. He didn't even have me put on a gown asked me to drop my pants to look at the cyst on my groin. he barely looked at it and told me I would need to be put under and have surgery. comments by the staff continued. I was so uncomfortable, I left there in tears. I called my primary doctor who put me on antibiotics and gave me instructions and the cyst went away. I have NEVER in my life experienced such rudeness and disrespect. It was bad enough that the staff was rude, but then for the doctor to not only allow this but to join in on it was just appalling. I never do this, but I am going to add this review to as many sites as I can. I wouldn't want anyone else to go thru this

As patients we are vulnerable and rely on our physicians to show compassion and empathy of which he had none. Instead I felt violated and embarrassed.

I was treated by Dr. Haveran for a hemorrhoidectomy and had a terrible experience. The procedure was more significant than expected which can happen, but he completely downplayed how severe my recovery would be. I was told there were no restrictions and would be uncomfortable for the weekend. I am now 10 weeks post-op and am still unable to do normal daily activities and experiencing significant pain. I was seen by his NP for multiple follow-ups and was told this was part of the healing process. I was finally seen by Dr. Haveran 3 weeks ago, where he diagnosed me with a different issue and suggested another surgery before even examining me. I decided to get a 2nd opinion at MGH where they were surprised with his post-op approach, noting that a hemorrhoidectomy is the most significant surgery they do in their division. They also confirmed that he misdiagnosed me in my recent appt. and I do not require another surgery. Please do your own homework if being seen by Dr. Haveran!

I was so blessed to have had Dr. Haveran as my surgeon to remove my rectal cancer. From my first office visit with Dr. Haveran I knew I was in good hands. Dr. Haveran is a very caring man and thorough surgeon. I greatly appreciate all Dr. Haveran did so I am finally cancer free.

Do not trust this man. Look up his name, you'll find the medical board ordering him to explain why he shouldn't be sanctioned! He somehow misdiagnosed me even after he did an EUA and said he would be able to confirm diagnosis and make sure there was nothing else wrong. Then he did a surgery on me for a fissure, told me he never found a fissure and refused to treat my pain. I ended up in the ER twice with dangerously high blood pressure from the pain and when clinicians saw the state of my surgical site they were completely shocked. I was given pain meds the first time and they added anxiety meds the next time because I was so traumatized my blood pressure was still 225/120!! I was misdiagnosed and have been so traumatized that I'd rather deal with daily pain and discomfort from the condition I ACTUALLY have then try to trust another person with my care in this area.

Best around...

Dr. Liam Haveran did a colorectal cancer surgery for a member of my family. I want to thank him for an excellent outcome and a smooth and professional process. Everything went better than we could have ever imagined when we got the diagnosis. Dr. Haveran was kind and took the time to explain the procedure carefully beforehand the risks and the possible outcomes. There were no complications of any kind and he was walking around and eating normally within 3 days!! We are delighted to have such good medical professionals at Cape Cod Hospital serving Cape Cod. Our deepest gratitude and thanks from TL and family!!

Great Doctor! He did a great job! I recommend you to see him.

Dr. Haveran, is not only knowledgeable, but has an incredible bed side manner, a rare quality in this day and age of modern medicine. He performed a hernia repair surgery, (open procedure) on me recently. I was very nervous about having the procedure done, and put the surgery off for some time. Dr. Haveran was very easy to talk to and took the time to answer all my questions. He was very reassuring and supportive, both prior to my procedure and with after care. He has a great sense of humor, is very self confident in his abilities and very cautious in his approach to surgery. I recommend him without hesitation or reservation. The medical profession is lucky to have this man.

Terrible bedside manner.
