I would highly recommend this practice if you've been thinking of starting therapy.

A good doctor makes you feel like you are his/her only patient at least for that hour and he does that. Whether or not medication is needed, I believe he is the right choice.

As a prior patient of other pain clinics in Birmingham, I can say that unlike the other pill mills,…read moreThe Doleys Clinic staff has been wonderful, helpful, and sincere about finding out why I am in pain and helping me managing it. They offer both homeopathic medicines as well the standard medications. Dr. Jimmeh (who sadly left during COVID) was the most knowledgeable and helpful, she was one of the best pain/neurologist doctors I've seen ever. The staff is always helpful, and easy to work with, Especially when BC/BS messes with medication coverage. Sadly after Dr. Jimmeh left I was put with another doctor, him and I didn't see eye to eye and my confidence in the Doleys clinic lagged. I may have left but I would still very much recommend them as one of the few good pain clinics in the Birmingham area. Just remember, although you are a patient, you are also a customer, so don't be afraid to be assertive and ask questions of your doctors. You will get the best care when you do.

Mallory is by far the best counselor I've ever been too! From the moment I stepped into her office,…read moreI knew I would be comfortable to delve into my deepest/darkest thoughts with her. Her ability to listen, provide insightful support, and knowledge of her trade has provided me with an arsenal of tools I can use to get through those tough moments even when she's not physically there to talk me through them! Not to mentioned, her get-after-it attitude is inspiring as she encourages you to face your struggles head on to overcome them. Each time I walk out of her office I'm inspired to continually work through my scars/deepest struggles to align myself with the ideals/intentions I have set for myself. It's safe to say I trust Mallory, and I will continue to see her for a long time coming. Cannot recommended her enough!

I will NEVER go back to this office and will NEVER recommend it. I left and bawled my eyes out in…read morethe car the entire way to work because of Dr. Donohue. This was the first time I had seen the actual doctor. When the resident tried to update her in the hall, she was loudly complaining about me and didn't even let the resident get through with all of my updates and issues. She came in and was nice but abrasive then went back in the hall and complained about me some more really loudly. I feel like HIPAA was breached, and I felt mortified because I know I wasn't the only patient who could hear her. I wanted to leave right then, and I did apologize to her if I did something wrong, but she still complained about me. I felt totally disrespected and discouraged in updating my primary care doctor with my health concerns (isn't that their job???). People need to be aware of the degradation and violation of privacy I felt in that visit. I don't want anyone to feel the same way I did. I'm a strong person, and this really, really upset me. Also, because she didn't listen to the resident or me, she told me my back pain was a "new" issue (I've had back issues for 20 years but it's been exacerbated because I moved) and didn't need a specialist. She was accusing me of "dog paddling" multiple times when I was just updating them on what was and wasn't helping and updating my primary care on my health. I didn't notify them beforehand because the exacerbation occurred a couple of weeks before, and I figured I would tell them at my appointment and try to treat it to get it healed with resting it and taking ibuprofen. I'm not looking for medicine. I just want to know what's wrong with it. I also started feeling sick this weekend as well and was just letting them know because their questionnaire asks about recent symptoms. It's making me cry just typing this and reliving it. She was also telling the resident to not listen to "dog paddling", and it's really discouraging to hear someone training the next generation of doctors to be anything like her because I really appreciated him. Such a shame.
