The first time I saw Dr McAllister he was very thorough before deciding on surgery. This time was no different. He explained everything direct and to the point and luckily my current bad disk isn't the culprit of my symptoms and I can do PT and steroids. Although I'd totally trust him to do a surgery if needed, I'm glad I don't need one. Im thankful how direct, confident and skilled he is.
