    Dr. Mallery is an outstanding doctor who navigates the unique and often complex aspects of my diagnosis, fully engaged and focused on the best possible outcome for my health, which is stability. I have stage 4 cancer, and it is currently stable thanks to [redacted] and Brigham and Women's Hospital. I feel supported by Dr. Mallery, and he can see the small and big picture of my health needs and communicate them and apply them in a realistic but hopeful manner. I feel very positive and good about my visits with Dr. Malllery. He inspires compassion, hope, and healing.

    Dr. Mallery was personal, professional and thorough, a pleasure to be with particularly for an initial appointment. He plans to discuss my case with another specialist and get back to me. I look forward to hearing from him (or his office) probably after the holidays.

    During this particular visit with Dr. Mallery, my experience was average. I would say it was possibly better than several other appointments. I felt that in one appointment, he was actually a little agitated that I had been referred to his office and he was unable to assess me significantly at that time. He seems to know how to read the medical reports and the MRIs but his bedside manners are lacking and several times while I was asking questions he has cut me off and and told me to come back in 6 months.

    I value the professionalism and care that the Neuro Ophthalmology clinic provides - that's why I come to BWH from [redacted], Maine! Thank you.

  • Reviewed on 11/3/2025

    I have been a patient of Dr. Mallery for nearly three and one-half years. He was one of the first doctors to examine me when I was admitted to BWH with, at that time, a still to be diagnosed neurological disease. Since my diagnosis he has been a constant presence in addressing my condition. I have found him to be a first-rate doctor who has never rushed appointments, always explained things clearly and generally an appointment I always look forward to having. His understanding of my disease and guidance provided has been invaluable and I cannot be more thankful for the good fortune in having him as my doctor.
