Dr. McAdam is personable. He explains things carefully and listens. Even though he was very busy yesterday, he gave me the few extra minutes I needed and did not rush.

Dr. McAdam has excellent bedside manner, is clearly a skilled surgeon, and very detailed in his explanations. There is an obvious level of compassion in Dr. McAdam’s work and consistently makes patients feel heard. He has seen me through multiple knee surgeries over the last few years and I have never had anything but positive reviews.
