Dr O’Donnell is an exceptionally attentive and personable specialist who takes the time to truly understand her patients’ concerns. She communicates clearly and with the right level of detail to put you at ease. Although my condition fell outside her scope of practice, she promptly referred me to the appropriate specialist, who was ultimately able to resolve an issue I had been managing for quite some time.
