My daughter has been here twice. same excuse for non-help as before - "we don't have the records from Vanderbilt" and WITHOUT THE RECORDS, Dr. Dongas states, "I don't think there will be anything I can do". I would like to know how she knows this without the records. Waste of time, this doctor.

The doctor has a wonderful nurse. The doctor has more to be desired. She was about two hours late for my appointment and the way the overly forceful and careless way she touched me during exam was creepy.

Dr Dongsa is great. She has been treating me for over three years now. Each time she sees me she treats me with the respect and care that is not often seen in the medical community today. Not only does she look for problems with my MS but also other ailments. She takes time to explain things in layman's terms and to see if there is anything else she can do. She always finishes our visits with"If you need anything before our next appt. please call and let me know." God was looking down on me when Centennial Neuroscience was called in on my case. Would most definitely recommend them to anyone needing a neurologist. Can't say thank you enough.

Dr. Dongas is prompt and up to date on all the aspects of medicine. She has always taken the time to explain in detail about my condition. She is always willing to go the extra mile with any concern about my health. She is definitely top notch.
