I was very happy with seeing Dr McCoy. I have had issues with my hip for over 20 years. Between Dr McCoy and Dr ***, these are the first two doctors who didn't just chalk up my pain to being overweight. They listened to what was bothering me. They took extra tests to make sure everything was okay or what they would need to do in the future. They both listened to me which is something no other doctor I have been to in UH has ever done. Dr McCoy also didn't make me feel dumb for asking questions and gave me a better outlook on my pain and what could come. He made sure to give me help if I needed it with medication and offering other solutions if the pain does not go away. He did not decline service to me based on my weight alone.

Dr. McCoy has performed rotator cuff and TKR surgery for me in the past. This visit was a follow up regarding options for my other knee.
