I would highly recommend McDonald and McDonald to anyone! It was my husband who was applying for disability income. He... received it on the first try so he did not need to go to court. My husband had several phone calls with Joe and his kindness, responsiveness and knowledge were extremely helpful during the days of waiting for the disability application to be approved. After reviewing my husbands MRI's, Joe was more concerned with his upper spine then his lower spine and Joe was right. Four doctors never saw what Joe did until my husband asked one of them, then after another MRI it was acknowledge that his upper spine was worse then the lower. You won't go wrong with McDonald and McDonald.read more
