“I was recommended to Dr. Dona because of chronic knee pain. I saw him in December, and he administered cortisone shots in both knees. After a follow-up appointment, he recommended a hyaluronate gel shot, which was administered in January. I am needle-phobic, but he showed compassion. The injection process was minimal. I would recommend him to friends and family. He is a compassionate doctor who listens to his patient. Thank you for allowing me to describe my experience. You appreciate doctors like him when they assist you with chronic pain.”

“Dr. Dona is gentle and very kind. After he gave me my ultrasound cortisone shot, I almost started crying. I knew I experienced pain when I moved my arm, but I had no idea that I was in pain all the time until after the shot. My arm didn't hurt anymore. I was stunned, and how much better I immediately felt. I have been a patient of Tri-County for a long time. Dr. Goldberger helped me with a badly broken leg. Dr. Ji noticed something in my MRI on my shoulder that necessitated a much-needed trip to a neurologist. I received top-quality care all around.”
