Dr McMurrtrey was excellent. He explained options for additional medication and increasing my current med now since I had minimal side effects. He even showed us the MRI and explained what were seeing. Absolutely great!

Dr McMurtrey spent much time with me, answering my/our questions, etc. And: he looked at me while doing so- jnstead of starkng at a laptop screen! Fantastic. He is very thoughtful and kind.
