Dr. Donald McGinnis strives to meet the expectations of his patients, especially when it comes to getting them back to activities they enjoy most. Working with athletes and assisting them to recover and return to sports after an injury motivated Dr. McGinnis to focus his specialization on sports medicine and arthroscopy. Growing up the son of a physician in Oklahoma City, he knew from an early age he wanted to pursue a career in medicine, just like his older siblings. His fellowship training in Sports Medicine, coupled with a desire to give back to the community has kept him active, working with athletes of all ages in a variety of sports. Dr. McGinnis serves as a U.S. Olympic Snowboarding Team Physician and has spent almost 20 years on Sooner sidelines, working as a Team Physician for the University of Oklahoma athletic programs. Dr. McGinnis and his wife, Stacy, are committed to health and wellness in their own lives and are proud parents of four grown, athletic sons.

Dr. Mc Ginnis has treated both my husband and me. He is a wonderful, skilled doctor. He listens to concerns and answers questions. Wendy and Ashley and receptionists are great as well
Dr McGinnis is the best!!!
He is always pleasant and very informative.
Procedure was really good. I ended at developing certain things after the surgery, but his surgery procedure was pretty good.
Awesome as always
I recently had rotator cuff surgery. Dr McGinnis is awesome! His staff is very good. Dr. M takes as much time as needed to answer any questions or concerns.
It helps that Dr. McGinnis gave me good news, but I was completely confident and ready for whatever plan I was given for my shoulder. Dr. McGinnis is one of the best in the state.
super took time to discuss issues
It’s always a pleasant experience with Dr. McGinnis. I know he cares about his patience.
Our family has known Don for over 20 years. He has treated several of us for many years. Each of us would give him the highest rating. He is compassionate, caring and treats all with respect.
