Shana was very good .. did a good history & examination, explained what was wrong & what she saw in Xray. Felt a steroid shot would help & did a great job with that. Gave me some exercises & elbow brace. Follow up visit in 3 months unless pain or symptoms increased!
Great care & very pleasant! Would recommend Dr Malcarney & Shana highly !!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
