Dr. McGrory and his nurse are a great team. I have felt very comfortable with their level of concern, care, and treatment options. They have been above and beyond willing to try every option possible before recommending I have back surgery. They are very straightforward and honest. I will recommend them to others I know with the same back issues. 5 stars all day!

I have been his patient for 14 years and would probably be in a wheelchair without him. Dr. McGrory and his staff are the most knowledgeable and professional you will find and appointments could not run smoother. I can't recommend him highly enough.

Dr McGrory has been working on my knee for the longest with injections and it finally came down to a knee replacement. I would go to him again for my other knee for sure.
