Dr. Dunne is great! She has been treating knowsmy ortho problems, along a has kept with my husband, sisters-
Always looking out for best for patient.
Always on time. She takes time to answer all question and never seems to be rushing for the next app. I have dealt Laura for many years she is a true professional Doctor.
Love her!!!!
Dr Dunne has helped me so much - between understanding my knee pain, giving me appropriate exercises and stretches and steroid then gel shots. My knee pain is very minimal - when for the last 4 years it was a lot of pain. I'm more active now and rarely think about knee pain because it's no longer constant. HIGHLY recommend Dr Dunne because she listened and took my pain seriously.
Always Dr Dunne is on a scale of 1-10, a 12….professional, helpful and not dismissive as sone to older female patients.
Very informative! Spent as much time as needed with me! Wonderful first visit!
each time I have needed Dr Laura I received an appointment right away, and was treated immediately with a huge smile and results
Takes time Answers all questions
