Not sure what to say?

I am saddened to just learn of Donnie’s passing. Sending thoughts and prayers to his family and friends. I felt comforted by him during my acne journey and beginning Accutane as a teenager. His office was probably one of the most welcoming clinics I have ever experienced. We shared stories of our horses, and he was my inspiration to go into Nursing. I ended up also graduating from the University of Tampa. We moved away to Michigan about 8 years ago and moved back this past year. I was trying...

Still miss you to this day. Wish you were still hear to just she you smile. You always had an upbeat about you. Keep the music going Donnie. God bless and Prayers

Just read of Donnie's passing. He will be missed by many.

We are so saddened to learn of Donnie's passing. We met him as patients where he treated us both with his care and gentle nature. We laughed and had fun getting to know him over our visits. He told us about his fiancé and we send our thoughts, prayers and sympathy to him, the family, friends, and everyone who was touched in their lives by this kind sweet man.

Donnie God has call home an awesome man. You were not only a great doctor to me even if that wasn't your true title. I miss you very much and God has a place for you. God Bless, love, prayers, and a strong heart to all your family and friends. You will be missed.

I wish God's peace for all of Donnie's friends, family, and patients who grieve his loss here on earth. He touched the hearts and lives of many.

Donnie was, and will always be the man I called my Fiancee. The man I had planned on spending the rest of my life with. The man I looked forward to taking care of for many more years, as he had taken care of so many people in his life.

He was like no other man I had ever met in my entire life. The passion he had for his family, his friends, his patients, his pets, his gym family, and his office family, was like no other I've ever experienced.

Everyone that knew him...

My children were patients of his. Donnie was great with my kids. Kind and understanding of my kids issues and he always made them feel at ease. Very sad when they heard the news. Thought and prayers go out to those closest to Donnie.

Met Donnie in 1973 when we were 16 and 15 years old. We talked about wanting to go into nursing; we both became nurses. Donnie achieved every goal he set for himself and lived his life fully and in the manner he wanted; one could not ask for more. Aunt Rose, Shirley, Rosemarie and all the family are heartbroken and still shocked over his passing and are missing him.
