Patient Reviews
Dec 19, 2023
Dr. McDonald was outstanding in every way. Amazing bedside manner/patient connection skills. Explained diagnosis and treatment plan perfectly. He gave me an injection in my right shoulder that was easy and worked immediately. Never had a better experience with an Orthopedic doctor. He is the best. His assistant Stephanie was outstanding as well. Dr. McDonald has earned my highest possible recommendation!
