Patients appreciate
Patients consistently praise Laura McDonough, PA for her exceptional listening skills, compassionate bedside manner, and deep clinical knowledge. Across hundreds of reviews, the most frequently highlighted strengths are her ability to truly hear patient concerns without judgment, take time to thoroughly explain diagnoses and treatment options, and work collaboratively with patients to find solutions that fit their individual needs and lifestyles. Many reviewers specifically note that she never makes them feel rushed, always answers their questions fully, and demonstrates genuine care for their well-being. Her professionalism, friendliness, and even her sense of humor are frequently mentioned, and multiple patients have noted they drive significant distances — in some cases four hours or more — specifically to continue seeing her.
Patients also share
Opportunities for improvement are minimal given the overwhelmingly positive feedback, but a small number of reviews did raise concerns worth noting. One patient felt she seemed to be in a hurry and that there was limited opportunity for meaningful interaction. Another noted that she needed to ask many questions herself to understand next steps and overall progress, suggesting communication about care planning could occasionally be more proactive. One patient also noted that she left the room without saying goodbye, leaving the patient uncertain the visit had concluded.
