“We came to get a second opinion from Dr McNally. The previous diagnosis and treatment plan was not sitting well with me. After seeing Dr McNally, we immediately knew that we made the right decision to get a second opinion. He spent lots of time with us and made sure we understood all of our options and what it entailed. Very glad we came to see him. ”

Dr. Thoman McNally is the best . I was a repeat painting he again showed me the problem visually on a monitor so I could visualize the problem, and understand it. He then explained in detail I he would fix the issue. Best 'bedside manor' one can get.

Verified patient
I’ve experienced issues with my spine and neck for over a year and finally have answers, Dr McNally took the time to help me understand what was wrong and provided options for how to fix when no other provider could. 10/10 recommendation
Verified patient
I was nervous and felt more needed to be communicated I left with my questions than answers Friendly and great bedside manners
Dr. McNally is wonderful. He spent time listening and studying my imaging to understand my specific situation, and educated me about it. The care I received was significantly better than another orthopedic clinic I went to. Highly recommend.
Verified patient
Very friendly and professional. They gave me a recommended solution and set expectations for next steps if that recommendation works or if it doesn't work.
Verified patient
Great visit would recommend for treatment.
Verified patient
Dr. McNally is amazing. I've been dealing with chronic hip and back pain and my primary care has been useless. They didn't remember anything, didn't listen, didn't care. Dr. McNally immediately took action, gave me a plan and made me feel seen.
Verified patient
Everyone was so kind and Dr McNally and nurse talked to me about procedure I was getting done and made sure I knew all risk being taken but most of all the pros I would recieve with this surgery on my spine .
Verified patient
Nice PA, nice radiology technician, and nice doctor. Good bedside manner. I was on a time-crunch for work and he helped speed things up while still making sure everything was in order.
