I had heard that Dr. McDonald was wonderful but he exceeded my expectations in the way he listened to me and my concerns. He explained my situation clearly and suggested options based on my concerns. He spent more time than I ever expected and answered all of my questions. I left feeling as though I had been heard and that we had a mutually agreeable next steps plan.

His miraculous skill as a surgeon saved my life several years ago, and the frequent follow-up care by him and his highly enthusiastic and professional team of nurses and specialists have preserved my health. I'm extremely grateful!
