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.

Dr. Donofrio treated me for panic attacks and performance anxiety. His expertise and patience helped me address these issues. He got them to stop and I can now perform at work and present in front of people without what had been debilitating anxiety.

Kind, insightful doctor. I’ve seen many psychiatrists and I can say that Dr. Donofrio is an exceptionally good doctor who always goes the extra mile for me.

Both of my young daughters have seen Dr. Donofrio for very different reasons. He treats each one individually but with the same care and skill. I think what I appreciate most about Dr. Donofrio is willingness and ability to think broadly about courses of treatment, considering all options, including medication. I also appreciate Dr. Donofrio's communication and cooperation with other care providers. Best in the area!

Dr. Donofrio is disarmingly empathetic, a brilliant clinician, and profoundly competent. Due to my psychiatrist retiring, I had to find a new one and Dr. Donofrio came highly recommended. He's awesome. To the idiot below: a) public dicussion of your child's mental illness in a public venue and in such detail that she and her close friends can see is humilating for your kid; b) read the JAMA, etc. studies on causes for in-network vs out-of-network participation by psychiatrists.

My child has seen Dr Donofrio for a few months now and it has been a complete waste. She has been hospitalized twice for depression a few months apart and Dr Donofrio not only finds that appropriate (look at the statistics regarding adolescent hospitalization to understand this statement) but he is completely unable to treat her in an effective manner. He is also one of the only psychiatrist that does not recommend therapy expect done by himself (interestingly he does not accept insurance...) wh

Dr Donofrio is incredibly kind and thoughtful. He spends as much time as is needed to explain his rational for the plan of care to make sure you are on the same page.
