I greatly appreciate the unhurried tone doctor O'Connor took with me while discussing my son's medical history. After some recent medical events that were very concerning, it was very reassuring to be able to discuss his condition with a specialist who was so thorough and caring.

Dr. O'Connor is absolutely wonderful and explains everything so well. We drive 4 hours from East TN to see him and it is worth it because he's so kind and knowledgeable and really takes time with our twins.

We were referred to Dr. O'Connor for two pulmonary tests. I appreciate the thoroughness of examination. Dr. O'Connor took time to explain in detail the main type of lung diseases and the four categories of possible scenario that my child could fell Into. He listened to our concerns attentively and answered our questions with great patience. Dr. O'Connor is not only a great doctor, he is also a great educator. I appreciate the time he spent with us and left his office with confidence that our child is on a good track to recovery.
