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.

Very Professional
Dr Donohue found a colon cancer during a colonoscopy. Two weeks later it was gone. I found him to be very thorough, professional and took the time to answer any questions. I would definitely recommend him.

I would not recommend this doctor to anyone. He preformed a 5 minute procedure ( his words, not mine) in his office and I ended up with four different super bugs. Two of them generally originating in medical settings. While other doctors run cultures and treated me for infection, he kept insisting , there was nothing wrong with it. I am now on third and fourth course of antibiotics and hopefully I will be better. So far I developed a huge hematoma that exploded, under the incision infection and as of lately a deep under skin ulcer. He never acknowledged or treated me for what clearly was a complication of his procedure.

I had hemorrhoid surgery performed by Dr. Donohue. The after care instructions were incorrect and incomplete causing me a visit to the emergency room. While I was following a proper diet and staying hydrated, a proper medication suggestion would have kept me out of the emergency room.

He cared for me when I had to have emergency gall bladder surgery. He was caring, thorough and explained everything. I had total confidence in him and I was not disappointed.
