Richard J Donadio's Online Review Report Card

when I first met Dr D I didnt particularly care for him. After awhile I lost a leg to diabetes and went to Rehab. After meeting him there my opinion went up greatly. I am glad to be his patient. He is very compassionar and caring. He is a Dr at the clinic but he is a compassionate care giver in the rehanb enterprise. I only didnt give him five stars because five=perfection which none of us are although he close. Love the guy

Hes a joke

The best doc ever

I have NEVER had a physician as knowledgeable caring professional as he is. I am very thankful to be his patient

Dr. Donadio is simply on of Georgia He listens. His knowledge is astounding. I trust him completely. He is a blessing to me He is amazing

Dr. Donadio takes very good care of me.

He is great if you get to see him but when you have a appointment hes always running about an hour late but the staff is incompetent and rude.

I have been seeing Dr. Donadio for over 7 years. I have degenerative disk disease, along with several other spinal problems. In all the time I have seen him I had never been called in for a pill count. Last month I was in Washington at my other home, and they called. I told them I was in Washington and could not come in. The nurse and I kinda laughed at this because of the circumstances. When I got home to GA my appointment was two days later. I came home early for the appointment. I was quickly taken to a room where I met with Miss. Sarah at 1:07. We talked for 15 minutes. I told her my pain level was at an 8, as usual for me, and we were done. I waited 45 minutes for my prescriptions, and had to leave to get my grandson. I left at 3:15 to pick up my grandson at school, I had to leave without my meds. The next day I was in so much pain that I didn't even get out of bed until 2:45. I didn't make it in to pick up my RX's. I called the following day to make sure they were ready to pick up. Now I don't know which event triggered their response but the nurse informed me that they were dropping me from their practice. I was upset. I asked why? She said 1. I did not come in for my pill count. They put me down as a no show. I explained the situation to her and told her they can not drop me for that! 2. The nurse told me I had signed a contract to be available for pill counts. I explained again and told her they can't drop me for that! 3. Then the nurse told me that in my last UA I had no oxycodone in my system. This can not be, I have taken oxycodone since 2009! There is no way it was not in my system! Maybe they was upset at me for not coming in the next day for my meds. Maybe they can not tolerate it when a patient can not make it in for a pill count. But there is no way I didn't have oxy in m y system! I finally got the letter dated on the 8th of the month on the 15th. They dropped me! I am now in the process of trying to find a new Dr. But no matter what my medical records are going to state that I did not comply with the contract. This is unbelievable!! I do not want to sign another, ever! My sympathy goes out to the Lady who also had to go in fro a pill count. I pray her husband remains healthy for a long time. If you are thinking about this Dr. please the good, the bad and the ugly, before you make up your mind.

I have seen Dr. Donadio for years. He will work you in. He spends tons of time with you without ever rushing you. And, his staff is second to none! I have seen a lot of doctors due the laundry list of health problems and surgeries (over 47). He is the ONLY doctor I have EVER had that is this caring, concerned, brilliant, and engaged. I just saw him last week. My health has been deteriorating. He has been actively trying to help me. I am getting more than a little concerned. I explained everything to him. I asked him to help me. To help me figure out what auto immune disease is ravishing me. He said he would. And, I believe him 100000000%. He is the only doctor I totally trust and believe. Even if another doctor I have been seeing recommends a treatment, I have to talk to Dr. Donadio first. He is that incredible. I am truly honored and blessed to be his patient! ANYONE would be lucky and blessed to see this doctor. He is not only an amazing doctor, but a fine, decent, honorable man. So, thank you Dr. Donadio for being my doctor! You rock!

I went to Dr. Donadio after 20 years of trying to get help with back pain, I fell at work 20 years ago and had back surgery 10 years ago and all others doctors ack like just want drugs, well I thought I had found someone who really cared about me as a person. After 10 days on medicine I was called and orderd into the office for a pill count in less than one and a half hour, I live 30 miles from Rome and had not taken a bath and ask if I could have an extra so my husband and I could get a bath and was told no, that I would be droped from the program, like I was a drug addict. I was only taking one Lortab a day, I am 73 with a husband who is 75 and is slowing dying from a blood infection in his kidneys, but do you think they cared. Dr. Donadio had an undated MRI and told me I had three pinch nerves and one was growing in one of the screws that was in my back, I just do not think I am going back after my next appointment, maybe if I was young, slim and good looking instead of old, fat and ugly I would have been treated better. What happens to me if my husband is in the hospital again and they call and I cannot get there, I will have a record that will follow me the rest of my lifel\.
