Christopher McDonald, MD

If there were a scale beyond 5 stars, Dr. McDonald would earn a 10 every single time. ​I first walked into his office suffering from debilitating neck issues. I was experiencing "lightning" burning sensations down my arms, as well as severely reduced range of motion, and I couldn't even lift my head properly. I was frankly worried about the future, especially because I assumed my arthritis would permanently limit my recovery. ​Beyond his incredible surgical skill, what truly sets Dr. McDonald apart is the environment he creates. He doesn't act like a doctor who is just checking boxes on medical charts; he treats you like family. From the first appointment, he made me feel completely comfortable. It is rare to find a physician who creates a space where you feel safe explaining anything without embarrassment, he listens like a friend who genuinely has your best interests at heart. I wanted to make sure my recovery was completed, so I waited until 7 months post-surgery, after healing, full recovery, and two successful follow-up appointments to write this because the entire experience matters. ​The results have been nothing short of amazing. The "lightning" sharp pain stopped almost immediately after surgery. My range of motion is far better than I ever expected; in fact, it is better than I thought was possible given my arthritis. I told Dr. McDonald that my goal was to recover in time for the summer weather, and thanks to his expertise, I was able to do exactly that. ​If you are looking for a doctor who combines top-tier medical skill with a compassionate, friendly, and truly caring approach, look no further. Dr. McDonald is phenomenal. Dr. McDonald, if you are reading this! Thank You 🙏
