Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Amazing!
When I arrive for my appointment the receptionist was extremely friendly, I only waited in the waiting room for about five minutes before I was taken back to The patient’s room. Then Dr. Donahue came in shortly after that. The wait time was incredibly short. Dr. Donahue was extremely thorough, very informative, and incredibly brilliant. She explained exactly what was going on in a term that patients can understand. She is friendly, always smiling and very patient. I will refer her to anyone that has any problems with their feet.

Dr. Donohue was so concerned about my foot issue, and actually took action, although conservative to solve my foot problem. She is an amazing doctor! She did surgery on my foot, and communicated everything to my family and me. I will be her patient for even routine foot care so that I never get in the bad position I was before being sent to Dr. Donohue.

If I could give 0 stars I would. This doctor cares about one thing-money. Her solution for every foot problem is making you buy expensive, overpriced orthotics. Then when she misdiagnoses the problem she makes you pay for ill fitting orthotics. Because of her incompetence I now have permanent foot damage and had to pay $800. to damage my foot. When I complained about the orthotics she wanted me to spend more money on a boot. Save your money and go to someone who knows what they are doing.
