Overview of patient comments

Summary created using AI

Patients appreciate

Laura McDonough, PA (also referred to by many patients as "Lynn"), receives overwhelmingly positive feedback for her attentive, patient-centered care. The most frequently praised qualities are her knowledge and clinical skill, her caring and compassionate demeanor, and her strong listening skills. Many reviewers specifically highlight that she takes time during appointments, explains diagnoses and treatment plans clearly, answers all questions thoroughly, and never makes patients feel rushed. Patients also consistently note her professionalism, thoroughness, and ability to make them feel heard and respected, with numerous reviewers mentioning they have seen her for years and would highly recommend her to others, particularly for foot and ankle/orthopedic care.

Patients also share

A small number of reviews point to areas for improvement. One patient felt they had to ask numerous questions themselves to understand next steps, suggesting some information could be communicated more proactively. Another single review mentioned feeling rushed with limited opportunity for interaction, and a different reviewer noted she left the room without saying goodbye, which caused confusion about whether the visit was over. One other reviewer felt she could have listened a bit more closely to their concerns. These comments appear to be isolated instances rather than a widespread pattern, as the vast majority of reviews describe the opposite experience—feeling well-heard and unhurried.

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.
