    Dr. Donlon is THE BEST. I cannot say enough good things about her. Very knowledgeable. Supportive and caring. She takes the time to treat, explain and make recommendations in a very efficient manner without making you feel rushed

    Good doctor and very glad specialists like Dr Donlon are available in the south sound and I don't have to go to Seattle.

    Dr Donlon is so informative, inclusive and supportive, all while doing her assessments and exams. I love that she doesn't bury herself in the computer screen but actually looks at and talks to me. The computer is for reference, but she doesn't let it dictate her practice. I always learn new things about my treatment options and care and leave with a clear understanding of any new changes or suggestions. Dr Donlon is friendly and very knowledgeable about my history and diagnoses. She thoroughly explains everything and I appreciate her kind, compassionate care so much.

    The only reason I would not recommend Dr Donlon is if she had no openings and was not accepting any more patients. She is really great
  • Oct, 29 2025

  • Oct, 10 2025
    Would recommend. Dr.Donlon goes above and beyond and she gets answer
  • Oct, 7 2025
    Dr Donlon is very persuasive (NOT pushy) and answered all of my questions and had references and explanations on the tip of her tongue. It takes a lot to put up with this grumpy old lady.
  • Sep, 23 2025
    Dr. Donlon would do well on the lecture circuit speaking on the ease and benefits of establishing a relationship their patients. New medicine is "assembly-line" medicine, in which doctors make no eye contact because she/he is pushing keys on the in-room computer. Dr. Donlon should teach other doctors her successful approach to high-quality communication and care.

    All my doctors hear my sibling who drives me more than me.Donlon does the best of all my doctors at hearing me.
  • Sep, 8 2025
    Dr Donlon is the gold standard for thorough appointments. She comes completely prepared and freshly reviewed all tests and procedure results. We discussed next steps in my treatment. Very happy with her and staff
  • Aug, 23 2025
    I would NOT ever recommend Dr. Stacy Donlon to anyone.
  • Aug, 16 2025
    My options for MS treatment were scribbled on a piece of paper at the end of my visit. She should have this information clearly put into legible words. A computer would be very helpful for this provider to use. I have her chicken scratch at home and I have no idea what her thoughts are. Terrible communication and I really don't care to see this provider again.
  • Jul, 21 2025
    Thorough doctor. Dr Donolon went through all the labs and options if we change the medication. She knows her meds well and can explain them with ease. Great bedside manner. If someone had to see her, they would be in great hands
  • Jul, 2 2025
    Dr. Donlon is very personable and explains things in an easy to understand way
  • Jun, 25 2025
    Dr. Was very patient ,he has hearing issues, plus my sister who is feeling this survey out, understood Dr. Recommendation
  • Jun, 17 2025
    I have been with Dr. Donlon for five years now and I just get better and better!
  • Jun, 15 2025
    She seemed really rushed and that was unusual. We talked about a lot f things - consider doing this, consider that. Ex. Consider Botox, but who do I see for that? I didn't feel that I had a clear plan of action going forward.

    Doctors tend to listen to family members more than me, my PCP does the same thing. Dr Donlon is very good.
