My visit was good. Everyone was kind and helpful.
Very kind and knowledgeable!
Planning surgery with Dr Donnally soon. At the consultation he made me feel comfortable and explained in detail all that would be happening at surgery. Full trust moving forward. Highly recommend!
Spent time and spelled out everything excellent
Dr. Donnally is a very talented spine surgeon. He and his team are like a well oiled machine. No stalls, hiccups or failures. This is my second surgery with Dr. Donnally and was as successful as the first one. I highly recommend this doctor and his team.
Very professional!! Succinct! I felt very confident that Dr. Donnelly could solve my spinal issues!
Everyone in the office truly seemed to be concerned and very concerned about getting me back to where I was before my surgery.
Dr. Donnally and his staff provided excellent care for me. I had ACDF surgery, C4-C7. He explained what he intended to do and did it exactly like he said! It has been 2 weeks since my surgery, and my neck is already feeling better than it was before the surgery!

Best Ever!
He has wonderful communication skills and a nice personality and actually explained what is wrong with my spine! And I have been searching for that for 10 years. I'm very glad he was my second referral. I will be doing surgery with him In the future.
To the point, transparent and compassionate! Thank you!
Dr Donnelly was prepared for the appt. He had previewed all my scans. Asked me a few things for clarification. He ultimately agreed with the recommendation of my surgeon and told me to tell the surgeon to move forward. He was very good.
He is personable, easy to talk with, and explains unfamiliar terms so the patient can understand.
Great surgeon with great customer service.
