Excellent orthopedic physician! It’s so nice to have “working” knees. He is also a good listener and very personable. It’s also very convenient to see him at CMC in Chilton.
He was just great!!!!
Great Doc….my “go to” guy
I'm a 73 year old fella that was pretty hard on my knees and shoulders. My bad knee was completely replaced in in February, 2017. My right shoulder was severely damaged in a water skiing accident in 1974. I had 3 surgeries in the 70's and 80's but full range of motion and use deteriorated over time, so by the time I turned 40 years old, I couldn't lift my hand over my head without servere pain, and I compensated by using my other arm, became left handed, and I needed a step stool or ladder to work on anything above 5 feet. That shoulder had a total reverse replacement in winter of 2018. Finally, my left shoulder became almost useless as it gave me sharp pain when lifting my left hand up to the level of my ears. I had a total reverse replacement on September 20, 2025. All 3 surgeries were successful and those 3 joints are pain free with complete range of motion. I'm humbly grateful to the OSMS team (and our gracious Lord) and am giving Dr McCormick a 5 of of 5.
Compassionate doctor. Gave me hope for a new outlook on life after hip replacement.
Great job and helping your student by talking her through it made me feel more comfortable. Thank you so much.
Very friendly, peppy, and informational. Thank you!!
Es un médico muy amable
Very personable, tells it like it is. Knowledgeable about all phases of start to finish with knee replacement. Very easy to talk to.
I have been seeing Dr. McCormick for 21 years for various injuries. Have not been disappointed in any treatments.
