About Joseph J. Donzelli, MD

Philosophy of Care

Since I started practicing in 1998, I have maintained that the patient-physician relationship should be viewed as a team or partnership. I believe my role on your care team is as an educator and director, and I am privileged to participate on your team. As a patient, you want to receive information on your medical condition and your options for treatment. I feel strongly that you should be involved in the decision-making process. Utilizing open communication, compassion and knowledge, I strive to provide you with the all the information you need to feel confident with your treatment plan. The trust you place in me fuels my passion to deliver the best possible clinical outcomes and help you reach your health care goals. Thank you for choosing me to participate as a member of your care team!

Dr. Donzelli is an exceptional physician. He listened to my concerns with patience, even when some were minor, and performed a gentle, thorough examination of my nose and throat using a telescope. His advice and treatment plan were clear, thoughtful, and made perfect sense. I highly recommend him.
