- 4.7Jun 21, 2025This was my first visit to Dr. McKay. I told her my issues in a time-line of how my accident happened and my current symptoms. She understood everything I had been going through.
- Jun 20, 2025Glad I was able to SHOW my physical progress to Dr McKay...For some disabled people, like myself, a VIRTUAL app is less stress, for fear of being late, and losing an appt.. The last 4 out of 6 times I tried to et medical transport, they never "showed up" to pick me up..Dr McKay graciously changed my physical appt to virtual, and compleeted the care I needed to move forward..Just a hard working, "old school" womn, that is amazing at her job and responsibility...I haven't had a nurse since 2019...Hard to do everything from a wheelchair...Thank yoiu , Dr. McKay
