Dr McGinty is an excellent doctor and actually cares about his patients! He responds to any questions quickly and ensures that you understand 100% what is happening and the next steps. His staff is amazing as well! His Surgical coordinator, Kristina, is so professional and on top of her game! She resolves problems quickly and ensures everything is taken care of. The entire practice works as a team and that is what makes them so great!

Recently had Umbiical Hernia Repair, besides the fact that he's just a great guy and explained everything to me start to finish, he did a great job. It's been two weeks since the surgery. I went into see him. No pain, he took off the bandage and there is barely anything there. I feel great and am getting back to my very active routine. I recommend him highly, had an incredible experience!

Dr McGinty takes his time with each patient. In that case, you do have to wait to see him. But he gives you equal time as the other patients.
