Primary Care Doctors - Grove City, OH

"I was seeing Breenne Mielke for about two years for annual exams. I went in fall of 2018 for a swollen lymph node and let her know I was experiencing jaw clenching and very high levels of stress. As I explained my anxiety and depression was really bad I started to cry and she said to me “if I could fly around the world and had out magic pills to make everyone’s stress go away I’d be a millionaire” she then went to say that everyone has stress and there was nothing she could do to help me. Feeling dismissed and confused, I left the office and told several people what had happened which prompted me to call the office. When I explained to the office manger what had happened she had Bree call me back where she further berated me. Sobbing over the phone, I asked her if she could understand how saying that to someone with a history of depression and anxiety who has been medicated for 10 years was a very dismissive and unprofessional way to treat a patient. All she would say was “Well I’m sorry YOU feel that way. There’s nothing I can do to help you.” Since this incident I have seen a psychiatrist and two other medical professionals who urged me to write this review in hopes that others experiencing mental health issues might be spared the same fate. I can only guess what might have happened had a suicidal patient approached her and received the same treatment. She should be terminated."

"I found her bedside manner to be wonderful. She has actually taken the time to listen to me and respond. When I maintained a healthy weight gain during pregnancy she actually told me she was proud of me and gave me a hug. I feel very comfortable in her knowledge and care, so much so that I brought both of my children under her care too. "

"I've been going to Dr. Dipalma for years, after trying to find the best primary care physician, I found him. I have to say that the previous review is unsettling, as it seems the person writing the review seems to not understand that just as they might have a family and other responsibilities aside from their career, so does Dr. Dipalma. Dipalma is very transparent and honest in his expert opinion and insights but also truly seems to care about the best interest of the patient. I've never had a doctor listen more closely than him. "
