Dr. Kyle McDonald, DO
Osteopathic physician serving Rockford and the greater Grand Rapids, Michigan area.
Dr. McDonald’s story
Dr. McDonald is a native of Cadillac and, with teachers and coaches for parents, a lover of practically all sports. He played basketball at Albion for four years, graduating in 2011, and worked as a personal trainer and assistant coach with his father before medical school. He graduated from Michigan State University College of Osteopathic Medicine in 2016 and completed specialty residency in neuromusculoskeletal medicine and osteopathic manipulative medicine in 2019. This included working closely with Drs. Richard Huff, Paul Dyball, Benjamin Visger, and Madeline Ginn. Though Grand Rapids is now his home, he still loves the Cadillac area and sees it as the beginning of northern Michigan and getting away from it all.
Treatment with Dr. McDonald
Dr. McDonald is an expert in biomechanical diagnosis and treatment. He can diagnose pain and dysfunction by anatomical landmarks, motion testing, and a detailed examination of soft tissue like muscle and tendon. He employs a customized blend of techniques to match each patient's needs, ranging from gentle and relaxing approaches to deeper, direct releases of pain and tension. He has earned great success helping people suffering from chronic issues such as back pain, even when treatment with other providers has failed. His background with sports makes him a great fit for athletes of all ages. The best way to learn about our techniques is to experience them. If you are anxious or have had bad experiences with manual treatments in the past, you are in great hands. We will modify our techniques to suit you and will never treat you without consent.
