Overview of patient comments

Summary created using AI

Patients appreciate

Laura (Lynn) McDonough, PA receives overwhelmingly positive feedback across hundreds of reviews, with patients consistently praising her as knowledgeable, caring, and compassionate. She is frequently described as an excellent listener who takes time to thoroughly explain diagnoses, treatment options, and next steps without making patients feel rushed. Many reviewers highlight her warm bedside manner, friendly personality, and genuine interest in her patients' well-being. Her clinical skills and expertise — particularly in foot and ankle care — are repeatedly commended, with several patients noting she helped them avoid surgery or navigate complex conditions. Multiple long-term patients emphasize their deep trust in her, with some traveling several hours specifically to see her.

Patients also share

The constructive feedback across the reviews is minimal and infrequent. A small number of reviewers noted isolated concerns: one patient felt she seemed rushed during their visit, another mentioned she left the room without saying goodbye, and one noted they had to ask many questions themselves to understand their care plan rather than receiving proactive communication. One reviewer felt she could have listened more attentively. These represent a very small fraction of the overall feedback and do not reflect a consistent pattern.

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.
