THE BUTCHER!!! Worst Doctor I have ever met. He did a total hip replacement and left my leg 1 1/2 inches too long. Nurses were shocked at what my wound looked like . I am totally disfigured. He does not care about his patients. We are just a $ to this Man. Highly recommended not using him as a Doctor because he shouldn’t be. My hip was done in 2010 and I still suffer with it. Had to have the other hip replaced. I did it in Boston and have never ever had a problem with it. BEWARE OF THIS BUTCHER!!!!!!!!

Dr. Donnelly is gruff and arrogant. Upon my first visit to his office, I heard him outside the open exam room door reaming out a nurse about the fact that he had to see another Dr.'s patients and that he didn't have time for that nor get paid to do that. I was shocked to hear this and I could tell when I walked past the nurses a minute later they were embarrassed because it was quite obvious his immature rant could be heard by many patients. Dr. Donnelly spends all of 5 minutes with me, rambles on in "doctor speak" and then is done with me. I walk out no further ahead then I was when I first came in. He told me that someone my size (mind you I have recently lost 136lbs and am now in a size 14) shouldn't be running, when I mentioned I run on the treadmill.

Ignored my complaints of problems and ignored problems after replacement. On my last visit he was 4 hours late for his appointment with me. It took him several weeks to see me after he thought I might have a bone infection.

Didn't ask some of the general questions you expect during a visit that are asked on the forms you fill out and bring to the appointment (which the doc doesn't read and their assistant asks you a few of them). How bad is the pain, what are you doing about the pain, are you having trouble sleeping, etc. Scheduled for a follow up in 2 months with PT scheduled until then, pain is unbearable and no MRI has been scheduled as I repeatedly have been told is the indication that the Doc is serious about doing something about it. :(
