John Donohue's Online Review Report Card

Terrible experience with this office. I called and made an appointment over the phone for a month later. The DAY BRFORE this appointment, this office calls me and says they're not accepting new patients. They cancel the appointment and their only excuse is "sorry, the person who scheduled you was new". I canceled other appointments for this. I took off work for this. Unacceptable.

Dr. Donohue is beyond intelligent. I feel in great hands under his care! Dr. Donohue is such a gem. He was able to fit me in his schedule when I was experiencing severe pain in my knee and shoulders. I am forever grateful for him. I’m now able to walk around without looking like the tin man. He’s so kind, gentle, and compassionate. I’m beyond happy that I have him as my Rheumatologist.

I went and saw Dr. Donohue in late February 2022 because I tested positive on an ANA test. He made me feel like I was wasting his time. He ordered some blood tests and was gone. I did the blood test the next day. The blood test results came in on 2/24. It's 4/23 and I have yet to speak to anybody in his office about my test results and what to do moving forward. I've called multiple times. His office keeps telling me that they will give him the message and have him call me back. But unfortunately, I've yet to speak to anybody about my test results. I expected more from Cleveland Clinic and a medical professional.

Rude staff and make it impossible to schedule an appointment, making you jump through hoops.This department is an embarrassment to Cleveland Clinic’s name on first impressions alone.

Although I was a patient of Dr. Donahue's, once I was unhappy I was removed so that I could not post a review as you cannot post a review unless you were a patient. I have a feeling that they drop a lot of patients that way so their reviews stay high. Don't read the Cleveland clinic reviews as they are biased. A horrible man in my opinion. I live on the other coast and was being treated by a wonderful surgeon, Dr Eric Weiss, at Cleveland Clinic in Weston's gastroenterology department. My internist was concerned that I may be having issues requiring a rheumatologist and since I was having such great treatment from Dr Weiss and his department, referred me to Dr. Donahue as we have a shortage of rheumatologist in this area. I made an appointment with Dr. Donahue and drove from the other coast and when I got there I met with someone else. I went over my medical history and background and left without seeing Dr. Donahue. She ordered a test which I did immediately upon returning to the other coast. Dr Weiss was performing surgery the following week so I hand-delivered the films and report from the test. I never heard anything from them so I followed up and there seem to be some confusion on the tests so after much effort on my part they found the tests. Only telling me they found the test I suggested that it might be a good idea for me to have a follow up appointment and I wanted to see the doctor. Since it is a long drive for me to make by myself, I brought a friend with me to the follow up appointment. My appointment with Dr. Donahue did not go so well. He acted annoyed that I had bothered him and bluntly asked me, "why are you here?" Taken aback I stuttered that my internist felt that I needed to see a rheumatologist. He said that there was nothing wrong with me and that I did not have rheumatoid arthritis. I then had to make two trips back over there to try to get my copies of found back Fast forward a couple of years and I had a surgeon here do a knee replacement and he was very suspicious of tissue so he sent it out for a biopsy. Guess what I have rheumatoid arthritis and if I had known this a couple of years ago I might've been able to get treatment instead of the pain. The best advice I can give is to run away

Another awful experience with an arrogant rheumatologist that thinks he is the ONLY one that is able to diagnose an autoimmune condition. I had already been diagnosed many years ago and he dismissed my diagnosis and said basically I did not have it. Just because a doctor graduated from Harvard, etc., does not mean they know anything or knowledgeable. I honestly think he only knows how to treat people that have checked all the boxes of a condition. If you don’t have all those boxes checked, then you are a waste of his time and it was definitely a waste of my time. My husband is a physician and he went with me and he was not impressed either. Don’t waste your time! I was NOT impressed with Cleveland Clinic either.
