When you want something done right the first time, simply go to the best. Dr. McGuire is so far ahead in his field that other doctors stand in line just to take lessons from him. His 28 patents are used world wide and came in handy when I needed some help. The first knee he fixed for me healed so well that I totally forgot which one he had worked on... until the other one required his attention as well! Now I feel bionic. Thanks Dr. McGuire, you are the best. I'm glad you're not running the Iditarod; I have enough competition already.
