Clarissa Bonanno, MD

It is actually difficult to put into words how wonderful she is in every way. If David Copperfield's Agnes were ever to come to life in the medical profession, she would be Dr. Bonanno. She is a beacon of light - extraordinarily bright, dedicated, thoughtful and classy.

Dr. Bonanno exceeded my expectations. She is highly qualified, always accessible, and helped me through all my fears as a first time mom. I would highly recommend her!!!

Dr.Bonanno is a smart caring and wonderful doctor. She helped me so much even after delivery. Our expirience with Dr. Bonanno and the entire Columbia team was amzing! We had so many things go wrong with this pregnancy, but we got the perfect doctor!

I'm a 41 year old woman who sought a high-risk pregnancy doctor this spring. None of the recommended Doctors on my list were accepting new patients. Finally I thought I'd try Dr. Bonanno, who is a physician at a Columbia office specializing in high risk pregnancies. My partner and I could not have been happier with our choice. Bright, inquisitive, kind, and professional, Dr. Bonanno guided us through our first tests and the process of pregnancy. Unfortunately we found via a CVS performend in week 12 (by Dr. Wapner, who was fast, accurate, and also excellent) the heartbreaking news that we had a Trisomy case, and we made the painful decision to terminate the pregnancy. One of the few consolations is that my partner and I felt the entire time that we were in excellent hands with the doctor and her office. She was sympathetic, clear-headed, quick acting, communicative, and emailed to check in with us as we struggled. We could not have asked for a better doctor to help guide us through this situation, and would return to her without question.

We really enjoyed our experience with Dr. Bonanno. The practice is run very very well. My previous OB's practice regularly ran an hour behind, so I was thrilled with the efficiency of this practice. Dr. Bonanno and her aides were all very professional while being very caring. I looked forward to every visit and really felt as if I mattered to her. Very pleased with the entire experience.

she is so commited to help everyone

Dr. Bonanno is clearly bright, but most of all she listens and is very adept at explaining issues as they arise. I looked forward to seeing her each visit and cannot imagine a better doctor to help bring our daughter into the world! She is part of a tremendous practice and I highly recommend her.
