Your trust is our top concern.
We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.
We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.
Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.
All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.
I've seen Dr McDonald on several visits. He has always shown concern and explained every detail when he had to perform a surgery on me!

Dr McDonald is very knowledgeable and skilled at treating Dupetrens Contracture. I feel lucky to have him treating me. I feel like he needed more time for the procedure. When the tendon is broken sometimes the skin splits open. This happened in my case. At some point we should have talked about wound care and pain management. But there were other patients waiting.
