I have been fortunate enough to have Dr. McInnes on my last 2 complex nerve related surgeries (Ulner Nerve Transposition & Assist on a TOS surgery) . These 2 surgeries, without a doubt have changed my life for the better. Dr. McInnes always takes the time to answer questions, listen to concerns and address them in a timely matter. He is compassionate, throughout and honest. Dr. McInnes also has excellent office staff who assist with bookings, questions and all was done in a timely matter. I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a plastic surgeon to head to see Dr. McInnes.
