Dr. Self is absolutely the best physician for my thyroid and diabetes. She genuinely cares about her patients and always explains the blood results as they pertain to you, not generally, but how it is for you. She listens and asks questions and responds. I love her and always recommend this practice.

Mary Self is a competent Doctor with experience and knowledge. She helped me very much with my issue. My only complaint is that she doesn't seem to me that she respects someone as an individual and listens attentively to my thoughts concerning my personal research on my condition from other allopathic and naturopathic doctors. I have mostly had good experience with her but had wished she had been more receptive to my thoughts on my healing journey. I wish her well on her endeavors.

I've been a patient of Dr. Mary Self since 2013 after thyroid cancer diagnosis (thyroid removal )and the need for continued usage of Synthroid medication for the rest of my life. She has always had a caring concern for my health issues and looking for the best ways to keep me feeling great. She is very detailed oriented when looking at my blood levels and their relation to my overall health. Her continued knowledge & concern for my overall health has made me feel very comfortable in her care & have referred several others to her office.

Dr.Self is a very diligent and conservative physician. She is the one who diagnosed my thyroid problem. This time she gave me Dexcom patch which has done me good. I used to eat when I felt hungry or when I desired - now I eat according to the dictates of my "readings" instead of "whimsical". I am indebted to Dr. Self.

Dr. Mary Self has been my diabetes physician for years. Diabetes is a complex condition, requiring extensive patient learning and interaction with the healthcare team. I am fortunate to have Dr. Self as part of that team. I recommend her highly.

I had some concerns about my lab work and some issues I thought should be told to my provider regarding my health and it was disregarded and as if my concerns were irrelevant and that bothered me. As a black women its concerning on how we are treated by these healthcare providers. I will see the nurse practioner going forward since I feel she does listen and is helpful. That is my reason on why I would refer others to the practice.

Only thing bad, is due to my med list and illness. I had asked receptionist to schedule me extra time with going over my stuff before seeing doctor. They didn't do it, and Dr. Self came in 2x expecting to see me and they weren't finished with my med list. Even after I explained I wasn't the normal patient. I have ALOT of co-morbidities, besides why I was there. When I first had concerns about my health months prior the person I spike with was extremely rude to me all times I called. Even had my Nephrologist office call to speak with this person and his nurse said, she was rude. Dr. Self is wonderful. I'm very blessed to have her. She helped me the first time in 2004 for over 13yrs beforeturningme over to my GP. I know she will again. JUST Need more than 5min to cover medication list. ALL 6 of my Specialist schedule me at least 10min extra for nurse, and extra 15min with doctor. Because of other health issues go hand in hand with seeing Dr. Self.( Cardiologist, Nephrologist, Rheumatologist, Neurologist, General Practioner,Gastrologist). Have a blessed day.

Dr. Self was running behind - however - that did not impact my opinion of her. She took the time she needed with me and I am sure she did with the patient before me. She was apologetic for running behind. I had never seen Dr. Self before and she was able to diagnose my condition quickly and ordered additional labs to confirm. Her office has been amazing at scheduling additional scans and appointments with the surgeon. I've been dealing with this condition for years and she was able to quickly diagnose me and work to get the condition resolved.

The operational efficiency was better than I've encountered in any medical setting. Further, each individual with whom I interacted was helpful and courteous beyond what is seen elsewhere. It's as if they genuinely are concerned for an individual patient, which is what everyone claims, but nowhere have I experienced such a complete display of caring.I've also not encountered a care provider elsewhere so prepared for my visit. That also indicates care and respect. From personal interactions to layout/patient flow, this was a Top-of-the-Line operation in all aspects.

I have gone to Dr. Mary Self and her staff for almost 30 years and I am 74, a full time JCPS high school counselor and administrator in my school, work minimum 10 hours a day, never take a sick day and love my life. Needless to say, Dr. Mary Self has played a huge part in that because I have had diabetes that long, thyroid cancer, melanoma, and a dozen other maladies she had seen me through.Her care is impeccable and I trust her with my life.Andmight I add, the UofL answering service has been the best ever. So, out of a possible 5 stars, I give my whole experience with Dr. Self and crew a 10!!! Most Sincerely,

I really respect Dr.Mary Self because 1st off,I hate having an appointment at one time,and not called back for 30minutes to an hour past appointment time,like your time isn't important, but theirs are.But at her office, they get you in pretty quick and she is very good about answering questions and explaining things.I think she is tops. So is her staff.
