My experience with Dr. Tierney in the Emergency Department was truly exceptional. No one wants to find themselves in the ER, but from the moment he walked into the room to give results from testing he immediately put me at ease during a very stressful situation. His kindness, compassion, and genuine concern went far beyond what I expected.
Dr. Tierney is incredibly knowledgeable, but what truly sets him apart is his warm personality.

I gave birth to my first child at this MRCH’s birth center and the staff took great care of us the entire duration of our stay. I had multiple complications that required an emergency cesarean birth. I felt all staff near me were attentive and I am sad this birth center is closing. In addition, I have had ultrasounds, X-rays and admission to the emergency room here over the years.

If I can, I always prefer to come to this hospital for anything I need done locally.
