Overview of patient comments

Summary created using AI

Patients appreciate

Laura McDonough, PA is consistently praised by patients for her exceptional listening skills, compassion, and deep knowledge in orthopedic and foot care. Across hundreds of reviews, patients repeatedly highlight that she takes the time to truly hear their concerns, never makes them feel rushed, and explains diagnoses and treatment plans in clear, understandable terms. Her warm, personable demeanor and genuine care for patient well-being are frequently cited, with many patients noting that her kindness and empathy set her apart. Patients also commend her thoroughness, clinical expertise, and ability to collaborate with them on treatment decisions, including being open to discussing alternative approaches. Several long-term patients specifically credit her with outstanding outcomes, including helping some avoid surgery altogether.

Patients also share

The feedback identifying areas for improvement is minimal given the volume of reviews, but a few patients noted that they sometimes had to ask many questions themselves to understand next steps or the overall care plan, suggesting that proactively communicating progress and what to expect could enhance the experience. One reviewer felt she seemed rushed during their visit, limiting meaningful interaction, and another noted she left the room without a clear goodbye, causing brief confusion. One patient felt she could have listened more attentively during their particular visit.

Patient comments are gathered from our Press Ganey Patient Satisfaction Survey and are displayed in their entirety. Patients are de-identified for confidentiality and patient privacy.
