Testimonials

I am so grateful to be a patient of Dr. McCormick. He performed emergency surgeries on me twice in the past 5 years. The first was an L5/S1 laminectomy and discectomy, the second was a C6/C7 anterior cervical discectomy and fusion. For both surgeries, my recovery time was very quick, and my scarring is very minimal.

Every appointment I have had with Dr. McCormick has been stress free. Dr. McCormick is always punctual and professional. My wait times have always been under 5 minutes. I tend to ask a lot of questions in my visits and Dr. McCormick took the time to answer all of them. I never felt rushed. During my recoveries, Dr. McCormick personally called me a few times to see how my recovery was going which in many ways reassured that I chose the right Doctor.

Dr. McCormick is the type of doctor that will go above and beyond to meet his patient’s needs. For my second emergency surgery, Dr. McCormick was not the Doctor on call. He changed his plans on a Saturday at the last moment to help me. As I said earlier, this made me feel stress free.

I have recommended Dr. McCormick to others that have been in need of a highly effective Neurosurgeon, and I will continue to do so. Thank you, Dr. McCormick!

My pain was so bad, that getting out of bed was a daily struggle. After doing extensive research, I met with Dr. McCormick. He patiently discussed the benefits and risks of surgery, and I felt confident with his treatment plan. Now, my outdoor walks which I always enjoyed are no longer a thing of the past.

Dr. McCormick is an awesome doctor. I went to see him after many failed attempts at relief for herniated disks, sciatica, and back pain. He was caring and compassionate. He went over all options with me and viewed surgery as a last option. Needless to say, I did have surgery with him, and am happy to say that I can walk again, pain free. Thank you,  Dr. McCormick.

I was involved in a big accident where I was hit by a tractor trailer which caused major issues on my back, specifically, my lower back. The pain I was having was so extreme that it would make me cry and throw up. I also had weakness on the left leg.

I was recommended to see Dr. McCormick, and after several x-rays, MRI’s, nerve block injections, and nerve ablations, we decided that surgery was the only other option. He did a fusion to L5/ L4 to S1.

After surgery, he would come into the room to make sure everything was okay. I’m just so glad that Dr. McCormick performed the surgery, because I feel so much better, now. The pain is almost completely gone. Recovery takes some time, but you just have to be patient.

I had neck surgery with Dr. McCormick, and he went above and beyond for me with great results, relieving the sharp pain in my neck going down my shoulder blade and left arm. I couldn’t thank him enough.

My first appointment with Dr. McCormick was amazing.  He was very good and already reviewed my scans prior to my appointment…he set up a treatment plan which I believe  will have a great outcome for my neck and lower back. Thank you so much.

Dr. McCormick is a wonderful, caring doctor. His staff fit me in for an Emergency consult. I was having paralysis in my extremities. Within three minutes of seeing me. Dr. McCormick had me at radiology getting MRI’S, and within 24 hours he admitted to the hospital. I felt like I was being treated like a human being. He made sure I was comfortable, explained my surgery in detail to both me and my husband. I woke up with no paralysis. This wonderful Dr. gave me my life back. I would and have recommended him to anybody. Thank you, Dr. William McCormick.
