Dr. MacDougall is the first doctor to take my pain seriously in many years. I left the appointment hopeful that my quality of life will improve under his care.

The doctor took the time to listen to my questions and concerns. He then addressed them all and offered his assessment and treatment plan advise. He was very friendly and professional.

Although I may not agree with all his explanations, he did give me them. That was not my concern. The lack of respect for my previous specialist who was second in line at UC in Cincinnati and me was very disappointing. I was not only dismissed, but my previous doctors (PCP) and Specialist were. But I was open and receptive to any new treatments Dr. MacDugal suggested. Why, because I respected his expertise.
