We appreciate Dr. McGinnis' thoroughness and caring qualities. He's always willing to explain everything to us. This is [redacted]'s wife speaking because [redacted] has difficulty with his speech. He has aphasia. And Dr. McGinnis takes time always to explain and answer all of our questions, and we really appreciate that.

Our experience with Dr. McGinnis was exceptional, more than what we expected, but we were so more than satisfied with the time that he gave us and with the questions that you asked. He was very, very, very, very exceptional as far as we're concerned. So we would recommend him to anybody and I'm so glad that my husband was able to get to see him.

Dr. McGinnis is the most thorough healthcare provider I have ever seen. He listened to all my concerns, asked questions, and took very detailed notes. He is being very comprehensive with my care and though we have not made a diagnosis yet, I know I am in great hands and that makes me feel much better about my current health concerns. I drove over an hour for this appointment and it was well worth it. I am so thankful to be his patient.
