Joseph Patrick Mcmahon

I went in to the emergency because for a few days I was having intense scratching which turned into scabs and sores. McMahon was the doctor I saw. Before I could even finish explaining my syemtoms he tells me I have bed bugs. Rude. Cuts me off and then prescribes an over the counter head lice treatment. If you read anything about scabies. You need an ointment that stays on the skin for at least 10 hours. Head lice treatment isn't going to cut it. If I get sepsis or some other type of infection due to the medical incopentency of of Dr. McMahon there will be legal actions.

This guy has ZERO business working in a women's hospital. He totally and completely dismissed absolutely everything I said, bullied me into tests I knew I didn't need, then tried to crawl his way into giving me a pelvic by using psycho babble. I had said upon entry that I wanted a female and they completely disregarded that request, despite being at a hospital designed for women. After asking several times for a female to perform the pelvic, he said that he was "only trying to help, but I wasn't letting him." Insert severe eye roll. His response to my protestation was that I could get dressed, he could discharge me, and "hopefully" I could get into a gynecologist that same week. I had been severely bleeding for days (over a weekend) and this was a complete last resort option for me, as I could not get into a gynecologist, and this jerk decided that being condescending was the best course of action during this incredibly stressful and frightening situation. Remove immediately.

Dr. McMahon was very pleasant. He ordered the necessary tests to arrive at an appropriate diagnosis. He explained the results, arranged for a specialist, eased my anxiety and administered correct medicine to quickly eliminate my immediate health issue. I’m very glad I came to Methodist Hospital’s emergency room and very thankful for Dr. McMahon.

This is an extremely arrogant and dangerous physician. I went to Methodist Women's Center with upper abdominal pains which were radiating into my chest. I explained to him that my father died at 48 from a massive heart attack and that I had these pains a week prior so I made an appointment with a Cardiologist, but could not get in for another 2 weeks. He took one look at me and said even before he took his stethoscope out and listened to my chest, that I was fine and just needing an antacid like Protonix. He made a full diagnosis prior to even a physical exam! He refused. When I said that women have different heart symptoms than men, he said "that's just a bunch of hype, I'm fine and should just trust him". What would I base that trust on? 2 minutes without even an exam! He is supposed to also have a nurse in the room upon seeing me. There was not. Just his arrogant words. Lucky for him I did not go home and have a massive heart attack. I trust a doctor only after tests!

Not only was Dr. McMahon courteous, friendly, and competent, but he also provided my husband a critical diagnosis which was missed by a previous physician. It saved his life. Thank you, Dr. McMahon.

If I could leave ZERO stars I would. His bedside manner is awful. He's extremely arrogant. I may not be in a "life-threatening" state, but to walk in and say, "someone is dying, I don't have time for this," because I was in the restroom... ridiculous!!! He was distracted by a personal cell phone call, didn't talk to me for longer than one minute. Oh and when he left the room he started to shut the door and and asked if I wanted it shut, I said no thank you and he slammed it shut. So professional
