    Dr. McKay and everyone on his staff are absolutely amazing! They are all professional yet caring. They all make sure you are well informed of all procedures before and at the time it's happening. Dr. McKay is an educator, he explains to your understanding of why certain things are happening and helps to maintain, prevent and or correct anything that needs it. After moving and trying a couple others I cannot stay away. He's well worth my drive to see him!
