Dr McDermott is SO GOOD! I get regular steroid injections in my back in an area where the disc is almost completely gone. He has a very limited space to get the needles into the right position. It hurts, a lot, and Dr Mc Dermott is very sympathetic, and seems to genuinely care. I appreciate that, but more importantly, he has great skill in HOW it gets done, giving me the relief I need for as long as possible. Dr McDermott is the BEST?
