Dr. Monaghan and his associate were very professional, friendly and patient. They took the time to listen to my concerns and suggested several methods for treatment.
Dr Monaghan gave me a thorough examination and discussed all my options very patiently. He answered all my questions and even used a model of the spine to show me what the procedure would be if I opted for it. He did not push for anything and was in favor of a conservative approach. I highly recommend him. Showed concern and caring.

I thought he asked the right questions, was attentive and no afraid to make decisions quickly. Nice manner. Spent a considerable amount of time weighing probabilities and prognosticating a future course of action. And he was on time! I also think he has a lot of common sense, which, ironically, is unusual.
