After months of dealing with this problem with several other doctors unsuccessfully, I believe after meeting with dr mcJunkin that he knows what the problem is and has the ability to solve it.

Met with Dr. McJunkin. He was very professional and offered me a number treatments and now I have to decide which is best for me.
Verified patient
Great Doc, Great office, NP and Dr communicated well so that I did not have to keep repeating what was going on. The Dr gave me options on treatment with full explanations. Would recommend.
Verified patient
He's got an excellent "bedside" manner. He is nice/caring and thorough. His assistants (nurse/PA) are also very caring, knowledgable and efficient.
He is a very caring doctor and positive. I sent a 4 page history of all of the history of things I have gone through with surgeries and procedures and he took the time to read it all. That impressed me and also telling me there is hope to remove some pain was encouraging. They got me in the next day for MRI and EMG and tomorrow I do the test Radio Ablution. He said he wanted me to be better for holidays to play with my new grandson. Syndi from Casa Grande
Verified patient
He was very nice. I am really hoping we can get to the root cause of my pain and I can have a life pain free. I have a little man to grow with and would like to do it without fighting through pain.
Verified patient
Very impressed. Professional.
He was a great listener and we had a good give and take dialogue. Am happy that with my age he is being very careful. Look forward to our success.
Great, can't wait for follow up visit.
Verified patient
Very dissatisfied, I was there for a severe pain issue, but I was not prescribed any pain meds. I was made to feel like I am a drug seeker when I only wanted something to get me by until I could have a block done. Very uncaring
Verified patient
Dr McJunkin & his other associates were very helpful with my assessment of my medical problem and was able without seeing previous doctors notes, make a very good diagnosis. I've been through many specialists over the past 10yrs and found Dr McJunkin to be extremely knowledgeable and efficient with only general info from 10-15yrs medical memory of myself (the patient). I would highly recommend him to anyone I encounter who maybe in need of of his specialty.
He was very professional and caring and made an accurate diagnosis and set forth a treatment plan straight away. I felt very confident in being under his care.
Needed to work through 3 layers to get to Doc repeating everything again and again. Recommended comprehensive testing including multiple MRI's [they have there own machines and need to keep them booked up]. Only thing he would not do is proscribe anything for the dehabilitating pain
Hoping this will help
