Dr. Paul Andrews is a very good doctor. He is very patient and listens to every concern you have. He is very knowledgeable and offers very good advice. He made me feel very comfortable during my visit and was very attentive to my care. I would recommend Dr. Paul Andrews if you are in the Durham area and need a good gynecologist.

  Buyer Beware This Dr. barely takes time to talk to the patient, then blindsides the family member...., Feb 9, 2012

I took my Mom in for a migraine. She had not slept for five days because of it and was hallucinating. Dr. Gagan didn't consider that her blood pressure meds. or her migraine meds or the meds they were giving her in an I. V. could have caused this. Or the fact that her thyroid was off. He recommended Resperidal for her. He left the info with me and split, his visit with her all of two minutes or so. I read the med. info and thought he was trying to kill her. It was for schizophrenics mainly. He also said it was for depression. I told him the next day I thought she just needed some sleep. He returned the next day pushing the same drug. I again answered in the negative. A few hours later the pill came via the nurse. At that point I thought I had no choice, as my last two answers had gone unnoticed. I foolishly gave my Mom the med. She became paranoid and scared for her life for the next three days. I was told they didnt know if she would ever be the same. She had two seizures and is now on Keppra. His only reply was that he could give her a different set of meds. He is cold and easily offended. He left me and the other Dr.s and nurses to clean up his mess. It took us eight days total. All over a migraine. All Dr.s covered for him. I'll never forgive myself for not fighting him to the death if thats what it took to defend my helpless Mom.
  He saved my life. He is the best. If you need a brain surgeon, look no further...., Dec 2, 2011

The world renowned Dr. Allan H Friedman is one of the most dedicated doctors I have ever met. He has dedicated his life to brain and vascular surgery. All I can tell you is that he saved my life when I had a very large brain tumor. I put my life in his hands and he gave me back my life. Thank God for creating such a fine and talented person. He has a gift and he uses it. He is so down to earth. I owe you big time, Dr. Friedman.
  Don't trust anything the staff says and find everything out for yourself..., Nov 22, 2011

Dr Simpson gave my husband options for what could be the problem. He recommended getting an echocardiogram as a precaution if insurance would cover it. My husband then said we only wanted it done if insurance covered it. The man who checked us out said that they would contact us if we would be charged, and if we were not contacted then we would be good to go. Because of this, we signed the consent form there and at the imaging center because we were never told we would owe a dime, so we thought we were good to go and not have to pay anything. A week later, we are billed $2000. Someone put in the notations we were told about the amount, so that was not true, and since they have our signature legally we had to pay. We could have contacted our insurance, but he said they would take care of it since it was less then 24 hours before our next appointment. They were not willing to fess up to their mistake, and treated us poorly after that. So because of them not be willing to step up to the plate and take the blame for their lack of communication, we have to pay in order for it not to hurt our credit. Be aware if you go this doctor to not trust a single thing they say. Check everything out for yourself before you sign anything. They also slip something in to the stack of papers you fill out at first to cover themselves, and apparently you don't have to sign it even though they say when they hand it to you to fill everything out and hand it back in. They say they followed their procedure exactly, and maybe they did...but we were told something different then their policy and since we don't work there, and that had been our first time there, we did not know their policy, and decided to trust what they said. Don't do it. The doctor seemed intelligent and caring, just do not believe what Travis or Becky say. Even when my husband called Dr Simpson's assistant to see if they could explain anything, she called back and rudely said "I don't know who you are or what you want..." So
