Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

A league of her own
As a healthcare practitioner Ive experienced hundreds of treatments of various modalities over the past 3 decades. Dr. McDonnell is in a league of of her own. After being in pain for many months a cranial sacral session with her provided immense relief. As a Dr of Naturopathic Medicine (former Wall Street business alum) her knowledge of nutrition, women’s health, cancer support and all things Body-Mind are quite astonishing (and her intuitive abilities blow me away).

Dr. McDonnell is one of the best doctors I have worked with. Her thoroughness and ability to look at the big picture where multiple health concerns are at play was very helpful. Her attention to detail when formulating treatment plans is meticulous. I also appreciated the plan language she uses to connect the dots for those who don't have a medical background. Thank you!

Great Naturopathic Physician
Penelope McDonnell,NP is one of the best Naturopaths my family & I have worked with. She helps me to stay in a totally healthy state and to really think that way, through her encouragement & dedication to her patients. Dr McDonnell is quick to answer phone or e-mails when my family & I have questions. She does her research & shares this with our family & gives us options. We were grateful for her work with my Mom during her cancer treatments. I know I am in great hands with Dr McDonnell & I highly recommend her services.

I have been seeing Dr. McDonnell for at least 8 years now for problems my internist is unable to help with. Dr. McDonnell's holistic treatments have done wonders for me and her knowledge is incredible. She is one of the most compassionate and caring people I have known and I am so grateful for finding her.

She is a better business woman than a doctor
I felt much sicker with everything dr McDonnell prescribed me. I think I was suffering with anxiety and whatever she prescribed made me more anxious and drove me to complete burn out that took me 2 years to overcome. On top of that, I felt that Dr McDonnell was more interested in making money out of me than was knowledgable in medicine. She is a better business woman than a doctor, she doesn’t have enough medical education IMO. Im being treated by another naturopath currently with actual medical education before studying naturopathy - a world difference.

I have been seeing Dr. Penelope McDonnell for years. She is probably one of the smartest doctors I have ever met - and always learning new things. She practices what she preaches to her patients. I have found her to be very responsive to questions and concerns. More so than any of my MD's for sure. I highly recommend her.
