From the first appointment with Dr. McGehee I was not only given the opportunity to tell him what was going on, I was heard!!! Dr. McGehee listens to what you are saying and genuinely cares about his patients. I would highly recommend Dr McGehee!!! When so many physicians today just want to get you back out the door to get to the next number it was refreshing to receive such great care. Dr. McGehee has a fantastic staff as well, from his nurse Sarah, to his insurance approval staff, to the scheduling staff, every one of them treated me as if I was the only one that mattered at that time!!! Thanks again Doc!!!!!!

I always have a pleasant experience when I visit Dr. Mcgehee. He’s informative, professional and thorough. I get steroid injections in both knees and he makes the procedure as painless as can be!!!!

Dr. Mcgehee explained everything to me and also asked if I had any questions, He was not in a hurry like most doctor's I highly recommend him to anyone with shoulder problems.
