Patient Rating
Patients consistently describe Dr. McClune as caring, compassionate, and personable, with a bedside manner that makes them feel heard and respected. Many comments highlight that he takes time to explain diagnoses and treatment options in clear, understandable language, involves patients in decision-making, and is thorough in reviewing progress. Reviewers also praise his clinical expertise and the supportive, professional staff, expressing trust in his judgment and appreciation for the quality of care.
Generated via Patient Reviews
The patient rating score is an average of all responses on our patient experience survey. The rating averages scores for all questions about care from our providers. The scale on which responses are measured is 1 to 5 with 5 being the best score.
Patient comments are gathered from our patient experience survey and displayed in their entirety. For the convenience of our visitors, some patient comments have been translated from their original language into English while preserving their original meaning as accurately as possible. Patients are de-identified for confidentiality and patient privacy.
