Debra Maureen O'Donnell, MD

Dr. O'Donnell is a provider that sets the bar high. She explains things very well, does not rush through the appointment, and makes us smile every time. We are grateful to have her as a provider, and it would be hard to find another like her.

She was very confident. She explained everything very well. She was extremely courteous and I would recommend her to anyone. Thank you.

Dr O'Donnell is amazing and I would happily recommend her to anyone needing a pediatric neurologist. She is always so thorough and pleasant, and was the only one who was able to figure out why my daughter suddenly began experiencing seizures at 16 years old. She was so knowledgeable and ordered all the right tests that confirmed a treatable infection was to blame. No other doctor including the ER and hospital doctors with Children's and other hospitals had thought to order that specific test. She has continued to advocate for my daughter and has always treated us with the utmost care and respect. I only wish my daughter could always have her as her neurologist and not need a new one when she ages out!

Ms. Deb was very caring and she listened to all of our needs and addressed everything, went over it, made sure we understood it. And my son really liked her and she was really polite with him and gentle and she took her time and let him take his time and I'm overall very happy with her care.

For both appointments we've had with this provider, she has been over an hour late to the appointment.

Very impressed with Dayton Children’s. Knowledgable, kind, and well organized. 10 out of 10

Very thorough and listened to all my concerns

They were great with my child

Dr. O'Donnell is great. She's always super helpful, super attentive, and always very subtle, and I appreciate that.

Dr. O?Dannell went above and beyond helping our daughter, and lead us in the right direction to get her better!

Everyone on the team is so supportive.

Dr Donnell was fantastic! She listened, she interacted with my daughter (1 yo), and explained things throughly. You can tell she loves her job.

She was very kind, knowledgeable, and she made sure that both myself and my son felt comfortable and understanding of what was going on.

Dr. O'Donnell is the BEST. I love how she has a balanced approach and is aware of care beyond pharmaceuticals, such as sleep and diet, and the gut-brain axis.

The only complaint was we waited for an hour to see the provider.

The provider was great, explained everything, and I would definitely recommend to friends and family.

She's wonderful and has made what others view as abnormal feel very normal and manageable ... we are blessed to have our son under her care.

Great experience. Appreciated the friendliness and expertise.

Dr. O'Donnell is Awesome doctor that take time with my son and I appreciate it so much. Thank you

Dr. O'Donnell has been amazing. She has a lot of ideas and information but still listens to our thoughts and concerns. She addressed every question we had and adjusted the schedule to give us just what we needed.

She has a compassionate and balanced approach, and is willing to work with our desire for a mulitpronged approach for our child (psychology, psychiatry, and naturopathic medicine).

The doctor, the nurses, the eeg tech and the care team sent in to help my autistic daughter were ALL SO WONDERFUL!!

It was very nice and sweet, both to my daughter and myself and my husband.
