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.

Failing the Health Profession
I visited Dr. McDonnell while in extreme pain and hoping for a true professional assessment of my symptoms. Instead, this doctor had no idea who I was (called me by the wrong name), had not reviewed my chart prior to my visit and failed to listen while I explained my symptoms and prior testing history related to my symptoms. He barely heard what I had to say about how I was feeling before suggesting I see a therapist, because 'It was all in my head' (his words). Newsflash, I am a behavioral specialist! This doctor should be assessed by a panel of his peers and see if he continues to be fit to practice. I did see another professional, who found that I had a serious issue pertaining to the same matter I saw Dr. McDonnell for. Dr. McDonnell's actions need to be addressed immediately, and I truly hope that no one else has had to suffer in the manner that I did, just because this doctor was too lazy to read a chart and too unconcerned to listen to the patient. Unacceptable!!!

He's incredibly intelligent
I love my visits to Dr. McDonnell, he has a great sense of humor, and enthusiasm of subjects such as the mind body conundrum, the evolution of our species, the double helix, and crossword puzzles. The reason I dislike seeing him is that horrible prep goo they make you drink before exploring the GI tract. That stuff really is the worst. Oh, also, Dr. McDonnell is a super car enthusiast. Shhh! Don't tell his wife!
