Dr McGarrity also diagnosed me with sleep apnea, after I tried my best to convince him that there was something ELSE wrong with me. I thought only overweight old men got sleep apnea. That couldn't be what my problem.He was very patient with me and always lstened to my concerns...even though he was so right! He's a very caring and competent physician.

Dr. McGarrity is a nice doctor; however, I was not looking for a "nice" doctor, but a competent one who can diagnose my issues. I don't think he fits the bill. His office staff has made NUMEROUS mistakes with placing orders for my medicine. Last visit, I talked with the office manager and let her know about the problems I have had.Specific test results are not shared with me unless I ask for them. If I don't, I get and everything was fine, which tells me nothing.I believe the office was much better managed before the practice affiliated with a new organization.

Dr. McGarrity is patient, considerate and answers all my questions. Although, he explains everything so I have very few questions remaining when session is done. Even if he is 50 miles away. His PA is very helpful too.

Dr McGarrity is my hero. He diagnosed me with obstructive sleep apnea, which is something I NEVER "dreamed" (LOL) I might have. He had a hard time convincing me, but he was right. No wonder I was exhausted all the time, I wasn't sleeping at night! Excellent and very wise doctor. Extremely patient and caring.

Dr McGarrity is great at what he does. He respects your time and really listens to your problems. He uses a laptop to make all his notes so he can stay organized and better serve you.. Wonderful Man :)
