James and his staff are always fantastic! I wish I could see him for all my medical needs. He truly cares about his patients as whole people (mind, body, spirit) rather than a single issue or surgery. I genuinely feel as though he cares more about me as a person than me as a patient, which is so rare to find these days. James is extremely knowledgeable, explains everything, asks if I have questions, lets me play an active role in my care, and always goes above and beyond.

Overall this was a very satisfactory visit. The doctor is very professional and responds very effectively to any questions or concerns that I may have.

I had an excellent experience with Dr McCarthy. He is such a caring, kind, thoughtful, and knowledgeable person. I truly felt that 110% of his attention was focused on me.

Waited 45 minutes before Dr. McCarthy came into room ... Probably shouldn't schedule him for surgery on the same day of office visits.He was very kind & grateful that we stayed & waited. We were about to leave, though his kindness & concern made up for being so late.
