Highly skilled and experienced he meets top standards of medical care and patient relationships. He is down to earth and very caring. I could not find a better doctor. Not a typical surgeon.

So glad I went to Dr O'Neill for my hand surgery. I could not be more pleased. No one wants to have surgery, but when you have to, it's so great to have all your questions answered and have great results!
