Patient Reviews
Jan 17, 2022
Dr Phalen is wonderful! I have been seeing her for many years! I trust her opinions & knowledge so much that my daughter goes to her & 2 of my nieces. Dr Phalen takes her time to throughly go over everything with you & explains it in layman terms so you understand. When she moved from Newton Wellesley to Needham I said I would follow her anywhere because I could never find a better PCP!
