Donna K. Dempsey MS APRN

Julia Amburgey

I’ve been meaning to write this review pretty much from my first meeting, but I waited because sadly I’ve been disappointed by psychiatrists’ over and over again. I’ve struggled with mental health for many, many years, since I was barely a teenager actually. I’m sad I only got to virtually meet with her for a few months before I had to move out of state, but I’m really thankful I found her. I had come from a psychiatrist who over prescribed me medication and always pushed me out the door quickly. I did telehealth with Donna Dempsey and she never made it a rush, even though it could’ve easily been with how technology is, she always asked how I’m doing or what’s going on in my life and seemed to genuinely care about my answers. I always felt reassured that I had someone to contact if things got out of hand with my mental health and I never had to wait long for a text back about medication refills or questions/concerns (which is a rare find in my experience.) I truly can’t recommend her enough.

Dr. Dempsey is AMAZING. She has put in so much work to find a medication regimen that really works for me, more than any other doctor I’ve ever had. She’s super easy to talk to and always makes me feel comfortable expressing any questions or concerns and actually takes the time to answer/explain and ensure that I fully understand everything. I have had nothing but a pleasant and positive experience with her as my doctor and would absolutely recommend her to anyone searching for a psychiatrist. Thank you so much for everything Dr. D, you are so appreciated!!

Before seeing Donna my experiences with psychiatric health professionals has been really negative and led me to feel that it would always be that way. I’m glad I reached out to Donna because I actually feel respected and not just like a “patient” that doesn’t know what I’m talking about. She truly takes the time to listen and ask the important questions to help you find the right fit and does not treat questions like a burden. Would highly recommend especially if you have had issues feeling comfortable with providers in the past.

I would like to start by saying how wonderful and warm hearted and professional that Donna has been since the beginning. She has made herself available from the day I contacted her when I really needed someone. All other psychiatrists were either not accepting new patients or were not available for at least 3 months. As you probably know, depression and anxiety are NOT something that you ever plan on having so when it hits you, that's when you need help (not 3 months from now). Donna listened quietly while I talked about everything that I was experiencing and what all was happening to me. Then she proceeded to ask me some more questions to get to know more about me and what all I was experiencing. She has prescribed medications trying to help me. I'm very sensitive to medications so it has been some trial and error. Donna is always there to help me and guide me through every step of my journey whenever I need her. Her kindness and understanding is above and beyond. I'm still on my journey and road to recovery and I'm so thankful to have Donna as my doctor to help me with my recovery. I know that together we will beat this horrible illness of depression and anxiety. SO VERY THANKFUL! Lorraine Lilly
