Staff were all very professional and timely. X-Ray was taken within minutes after the nurse check-in. X-Ray was completed quickly. Dr. M arrived about 5 minutes later with a clear and concise description of the issue, and recommended solutions. He didn't extra time to personialize the visit. Visit was recorded, so he didn't have to spend any time taking notes. A referral sheet with detailed instructions was provided and I was able to take that right to the PT's office without delay.

The atmosphere and energy was exceptional. We drove in two hours and it was worth the drive. There was no long wait, and the waiting room is large and comfortable. Dr. McNamara and his staff were very helpful and nice. I look forward to seeing them again.

Dr Mc has been my spinal orthopedic surgeon for "many" years. He is the BEST. His knowledge and expertise is amazing. I highly recommend him and The Bone and Joint Institute for any orthopedic issues.

Just wanted to rush me out of his ofc and make $300 off Medicare. No physical. exam, no help with problem scenarios I presented to him w/employment as a handicap. No help w/solutions outside of pain pills--uncompassionate and nothing was gained by consulting him.
