I really feel she is very caring professional and goes above and beyond, she makes herself available. I am thankful for my social worker Icela for explaining the type of care Dr. McConnell provides and offering me a referral I feel the consults with Dr. McConnell and Dr Weis are helping me with my mental and emotional health to cope with my illness.

Dr. McConnell is patient and kind. She has been a stable and positive force in my journey to refocus and redirect my actions and choices to improve my quality of life. She has never been judgmental and has allowed me to explore avenues and opportunities which could have potentially assisted in this improvement. Sometimes they work and sometimes they do not. Regardless, she is at the ready and willing to discuss these successes and setbacks with me along the way.
