Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Skilled and knowledgeable Doctor

Dr McCarty could care less about his patients and more about the money he makes. Very poor bedside manner, and makes you feel like a drug seeker if you're not in a certain class of people. He upcharges for just about everything, including Prior Authorizations. He does not care about you or your pain, your simply just a number to him. I strongly advise against seeing him.

I am totally impressed with Dr. McCarty and unfortunately I know pain Drs. Without question he is the best I have seen. From a human perspective(no ego problem- just self confidence), knowledge (He knows the subject matter), and most importantly he has the ability to put those two attributes together and discuss in layman’s terms a tentative diagnosis; the testing needed to figure out the correct diagnosis, and what to do that should/could correct the diagnosed problem(s). Quite clearly a breath of fresh air.

I was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia about a year ago and have unsuccessfully seen countless specialists since then in an attempt to get back to "normal" as much as possible. Today for the first time, I finally felt heard and understood. Dr. McCarty asked great probing questions, didn't interrupt me at all while I was speaking and was very empathetic. I look forward to following his treatment plan and improving my quality of life!
