I appreciated that she really listened, and said she is there to help me engage with other providers as well. Also that she is willing to mask for my health. Sadly that is a HUGE thing, and quite necessary for me.

The location is close and convenient, and I have been coming here for years. I have always had great service with the Providers and customer service at this Greater Dundalk Medical Center. Laura MacDonald is a NP and I much rather have a Nurse Practitioner than a doctor. They seem to listen to what you have to say and show interest in you.

Truly this was my best ever experience at a health provider. I am a new patient and Laura took time to thoroughly discuss all of my concerns as well as some external issues affecting my health. I felt heard and understood and I feel confident in our health plan for the coming year. After I left this appointment I called my partner in tears because I felt like I finally found a provider that will help me reach my health goals.

- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 7/31/2025
I hadn't been to a primary care doctor in at least 8 years, but I finally got tired of walking around in pain and having to pick and choose what I could manage in a single day. I really appreciated that the doctor listened to me and didn't dismiss my pain because of my age or any other reason. She took me seriously and is actively helping me figure out what's going on. It feels good to finally be heard and supported.
