A board-certified dermatologist with over 17 years of post-residency experience in both academic and private practice settings, Dr. Donnelley is in practice at Downtown Dermatology in New York City, New York. She specializes in general medical, surgical and cosmetic dermatology, and sees both adult and pediatric patients.
The doctor prides herself on her meticulous care and positive relationships with patients. She is comfortable with both basic dermatological conditions such as acne and warts, and also with more complicated conditions that require systemic medication and coordination with rheumatologists, allergists, plastic surgeons and more. She has diagnosed and excised thousands of benign and malignant neoplasms.
When it comes to cosmetic dermatology, Dr. Donnelley believes in a “less is more” approach to achieve a natural look with botox, fillers and lasers. She takes her time to give her patients a fresh and youthful look without appearing “done.” She encourages patients to bring photos from when they were younger to help guide treatment.
Educated in the United States, she graduated magna cum laude with her Bachelor of Arts degree in Biology from Yale University, and attended the Yale University School of Medicine. She completed her internship in internal medicine at The Mount Sinai Medical Center in New York City, and her residency in dermatology at Northwestern University in Chicago, where she was Chief Resident.
A Fellow of the American Academy of Dermatology (FAAD) and a member of the AOA Medical Honor Society, the doctor is board-certified in dermatology by the American Board of Dermatology, which is a voluntary, non-profit, private, autonomous organization formed for the primary purpose of protecting the public interest by establishing and maintaining high standards of training, education, and qualifications of physicians rendering care in dermatology.
In her professional experience, Dr. Donnelley started her career as a Clinical Associate Professor at Northwestern Memorial Physicians Group, where she practiced for over 6 years. She then practiced in Santa Barbara, California and Charleston, South Carolina before returning to her hometown of New York City in 2017. She practiced at Upper West Side Dermatology, before joining Downtown Dermatology. She is currently a Clinical Assistant Professor at NYU Langone Tisch Hospital, where she teaches residents.
Active in various regional dermatology societies over the years, she has served on the Quality Control Committee for 5 years while practicing at Northwestern. She has also presented at national and regional meetings, has been interviewed multiple times about skin health, which has been published in print and on-line, and done radio interviews on different dermatological topics.
Dermatology is the branch of medicine dealing with the skin. The skin is the largest organ of the body. Dermatology is a specialty with both medical and surgical aspects. A dermatologist is a specialist doctor who manages skin diseases and deals with both internal and external causes and some cosmetic concerns involving the skin. Dermatological duties include taking consultations, providing screening tests, and undertaking non-invasive surgical procedures.
From 2018-2021, Dr. Donnelley has been a Castle Connolly Top Doctor for the New York Metro Area. She also appeared in NY Magazine’s Top Doctors in 2021.
In her free time, she loves spending time with her family, and enjoys travel, any activities involving water, fine dining and reading.
