Review for Dr. McCashland

I had a very positive experience with this doctor and all the staff at the Village Point location for a colonoscopy. Everyone from the receptionist to nurses to anesthesia were super nice, accommodating and explained everything clearly.

Review for Dr. McCashland

Dr. Alliman always takes the time to address concerns and answer questions. He explains options with pros and cons. He has successfully fixed two retinal problems for me. I have complete confidence in his knowledge and ability. This was a biannual checkup. He's the best!
