Kimberly M. Mckean's Online Review Report Card

Rushed me out of office. Listened to my concerns, but then did not remember or record accurate information for follow up visit.

Excellent!

I was initially impressed with her ability to explain things concisely and fully. However, she has failed to review my record on numerous occasions. When I came for a specific issue, she did not review my record and ended up prescribing a medication which SHE had previously prescribed and did not work (I did not recognize the brand name when she mentioned it at the appointment and agreed to the prescription). Had she reviewed my record regarding that medical issue, she would have known which medications I had already tried. The visit resulted in a waste of my money, and Dr. McKean did not even apologize but stated it was my fault for not letting her know I had taken the medication before. I let the incident go but kept noticing that although Dr. McKean answered questions thoroughly during visits, she simply had a poor understanding of my health record and would not review even before appointments that were meant to address a specific issue. I do not expect doctors to remember everything about a patient, but if a patient comes in for a specific issue, the doctor should at the very least review the record regarding that issue in advance. At the very least, the doctor should know which medications she had previously prescribed for that issue. Dr. McKean is no longer my PCP.

Doesn't appear to recall last visit and/or test results. Maybe doesn't have time to review records before visit but doesn't instill confidence. Quicker to write prescriptions rather than offer more life style changes, nutrition consult or post menopausal diet changes. Considering change in PCP.

I switched to Dr. McKean after a horrible experience with another Dr. Since I've had Dr. McKean, she's been very willing to listen and help. She explains things very well, has genuine concern and works to quickly resolve any issues. I would recommend her to others as I feel very at ease in her care. She's a great Dr.!

She is very thorough and seemed like she really cared about me.

I found her to be rude, and didn't let me get a word in. She barely asked me about my symptoms, before she told me what I needed to do. She talked to me like I was a child being reprimanded, and seemed visibly annoyed by being there at all.

I was referred to her by another doctor in the practice. I met with her one time and will not again. She had no interest in what I had to ask about my health and was very judgemental. I am a health care professional and I felt as if I was being talked down to at a third grade level. I felt as if I was treated as incompetent. She has no bedside manner what so ever, changing my PCP as we speak!

I have seen Dr Mckean now for the last 2-3 yrs she has always been very up front with me and straight forward. She listens very well and then formulates a thorough plan and follow up. I have always been very happy and impressed with her efficiency and accuracy of diagnosis and treatment. I would highly recommend her as a doctor. she also explains things very well and I never feel like I can not ask a question,

Dr. McKean has been my PCP for the past 3 years. I chose her because of the location and it was convenient for me. My first initial visit with her was "blah" but I though I would give her a chance. I am very healthy overall anyway - I figured I only need to see her once a year. I like Dartmouth-Hitchcock, the OB/Gyn team is awesome, especially during my 2nd pregnancy. But I feel that I need to be able to rely on my PCP and I got the sense that she doesn't really care of any issues during my pregnancy considering I had issues on my 1st. The few visits I had with her were very short (with long waits). I get it, I am very healthy but I expect more than just "OK, you're good." from my PCP. I felt like she's rushing and just assume that I have no health problem.
