easy to talk to, takes time to answer your questions, I feel he has my best interest at all times. I am not just a hurting person to him, he cares. He has earned my complete trust in my health care, and I know he values what he does. his concern is to help people.

dr. Donaldson is great! listens to what you have to say, answers questions, explains things in detail, talks to you like a friend. Recently had rotator cuff surgery and would highly recommend dr. Donaldson. in a few days, he will be doing my knee replacement and I feel safe with him, I know he has my best interest at heart, I trust his skills. Thanks Dr. Donaldson. Praying for you for all your work in all your patients and asking the Lord to help me not to be so emotional and be a good patient, and for GOD to have guidance with you and your staff in my upcoming surgery.
