Michael J. Doherty, MD

An excellent first visit. I am very pleased with this experience.

It's all good!

As always, Dr. Doherty is the best physician one can have - passionate, warmhearted, very knowledgeable, and thoughtful.Thank you, Dr. Doherty! And thank you Swedish for having such wonderful physician for us!

Excellent

Dr. Doherty supervised my VEEG in February. This was my first routine visit. He was fantastic in February and fantastic during my visit. As I was unhappy with my prior neurologist, I am thrilled to be under Dr. Doherty's care. I have also found all office staff to be very courteous and helpful and perform their jobs well. Thank you.

Very pleased with Dr and support staff all very helpful.

I think Dr. Doherty is the best doctor, I have ever had. He takes his time to explain things and listen to me as well. I would recommend him to anyone that needs care in his field.

I'm very thankful I was referred to Dr. Doherty. He continues with genuine care to eliminate my seizures. After trying multiple medication changes, the seizures continued. After multiple tests during a hospital stay to see what part of my brain the seizures start, he recommended the VNS device. The VNS has reduced my seizures. He continues to make adjustments to the VNS and medications until the seizures are gone.

Always good w Dr Doherty

I have very good experiences with Dr Doherty.

Dr. Doherty was very kind, and listened carefully. He provided me with recommendations and advice he knew would not sit well with me, but was very gentle and reasonable. It was very motivating and I have incorporated it into my life. Thank you for the frank advice.

Everyone was great. Thank you

I have always had very good care with my provider. Staff is excellent as well

Dr. Doherty is a bright star in our healthcare firmament.

Doherty is able to understand and empathize with others. He seems to be able to put himself in my shoes. I am grateful for his understanding of my questions and answers given to me to help control a condition that is not well understood by medical science.

Dr. Doherty is knowledgeable, understands my condition and circumstances and he is passionate about providing my care in a way that balances treatment with quality of life and he shows he is very concerned about my quality of life.

Dr Doherty and his staff provide outstanding service.

Excellent provider.

Dr Doherty is amazing! He is brilliant and has an amazing bed side manner. I appreciate his dry wit.

Dr. Doughtery's an excellent care provider.My first positive experience w/ a neurologist. In 2010, after 15yrs of seizures I became seizure free due to his ability to listen to me (the patient) and willingness to try new/different medications. I've since moved to CA, and recently back to WA and am extremely happy to have the Dr as my NEURO again-- I was contemplating not moving because of horrible Dr experiences. Thank you

I've been a patient of Dr. Michael for over 20 years now. He's the best

Dr. Doherty and staff is awesome and patient!

Dr Doherty is very understanding and professional

Dr. Doherty was very knowledgeable about my son's record and even pulled up MRI and explained and answer questions. He made sure any concerns we had was addressed. We are very satisfied with care:) Thank you.

This was our second visit with Dr Doherty-medical needs aren't urgent but this was a follow up to a chronic condition and medication changes are happening-. Dr Doherty is great about writing clear detailed notes that include specific instructions and info. He is also great about responding to portal communication. He is focused on my daughter's epilepsy but his concerned is not just about seizures but about how epilepsy and treatments impact her overall health and quality of life. This has not been the level of care we have received by outside neuro providers-I am thrilled that we have a found him

The bestFeel he may be stretched thin based on his willingness to be present to his patients - which he does first and foremost

Michael is a wonderful person/doctorl

The Doctor has always been very understanding,respectful, and easy to talk to on every level.He has helped handle my health issues. He is a caring person.

I feel that Dr. Doherty always listens and is focused on our needs and concerns.

Dr. Doherty has always been wonderful in the many years he has been caring for me.

Dr. Dorothy is one of the best care providers I've had. He gives really good feedback and things that he thinks would help with things.

Established care with a new neurologist. Very happy with the provider and his team. He was running late but they communicated well and put me at ease. Even though he was running late, Dr. Doherty made sure all my questions were answered before he moved on. I felt valued as a human being

Dr. Doherty is the best!

Dr Doherty is a wonderful neurologist

Dr Doherty is great. I am a Kaiser pt, but was blessed to have a referral to see him. My husband and I used to volunteer for the epilepsy foundation and know him from there. Very well liked by everyone who knows him. Swedish has been great regarding everything.

I learned more in this 1st visit with Dr Doherty than what I have been told by past physicians for 44 years of being epileptic. He is very thorough and we are so happy!!!!

Dr Doherty is calm and solid and doesn't talk down to patients. Dr Glass was a hard act to follow but Dr Doherty succeeded.

Dr Doherty provides me excellent care.

He listens!

Very professional team, our experience was amazing.

This was our first appointment with this provider-he was thoughtful, knowledgeable and appropriately concerned about my daughter's specific medical challenges as well as how that impacts the rest of her life. He listened to our concerns and had reviewed her info before our appointment and came with some thoughts and concerns of his own very kind to both my daughter and I.

Dr. Doherty checks all that pertains to neuro, seizures, and then he asks about other health items. He makes sure the patient is followed by all necessary specislists snd checking with the primary care doc also. He confirms medication dises snd thinks outside the box for any lifestyle triggers for seizures or anxiety. He is thorough and cares for his patients.

We have appreciated Dr. Doherty's expertise for over a dozen years now. We trust him with our daughters' best decisions for seizure control and medicine management as well as procedures as needed.

Dr Doherty has helped me get me seizures under control and Iam so much happier for it.

Dr. Doherty is always a pleasure to see! He has been caring for my adult son with autism for years, and he is truly amazing. He has a wonderful bedside manner and genuinely understands what it's like to be a parent of someone with seizures and autism. He always helps us look at realistic treatment plans and focuses on what is best for my son and our entire family. We are truly lucky to have him on my son's care team.

Great listener, explained things clearly and was very sympathetic but straightforward

I have had multiple health issues arise in the past dozen years. Dr. Doherty is the best provider I have seen among them all; Cardiology, GP, Oncology and others. He listens, he speaks clearly and with care. I leave with a manageable plan. I would recommend him to anyone!
