Excellent Doctor, very gentle when giving shots!!!
Great
Very friendly and professional
A doctor is high value when they are wise and mature enough to understand that sometimes there are issues in a patient’s life beyond medical that affect their health. I appreciate Dr. Bonnaig’s conscious decision to block out the noise and be patient, kind and respectful to my mom in a lot of pain while also helping her with the treatment she needed. Thank you doctor! In this office, Medical Tech named Angie is a true treasure. The genuine kindness she showed my 76-yo mom is far too rare. Front Desk Isabel is smart, efficient, welcoming and professional. May God bless them.
He listened and showed compassion.
Friendly.knowlegible.good outcome.explains in layman's yerms
Dr. Bonnaig has cared for me for a few years. I say “cared for me” because his style is caring, taking the time needed to answer questions and explain what eventually became a reverse shoulder replacement. I resisted that surgery for a long time, got the shots, and he never once pressured me though X-rays supported the surgery. He said, “You’ll know when it’s time to do this.” He was sure right about that. No way could I continue to live with the pain and limits of my arthritic shoulder. He was right about another thing too. In a short time, post-op, my pain was far better than before surgery. He also keeps communication open with my PT so follow-up has been reassuring.
Very friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. I appreciate the staff and specially the doctor. Thanks
Dr. Bonnaig was awesome! He explained my problem in lots of detail and offered ways to choose to deal with the pain. He gave me a cortisone injection. I never felt it. He is the best.
Dr, Bonnaig is an awesome and caring physician! Please keep up the amazing work!
