Dr. McGowan was a wonderful physician, who was a savior for my daughter when she was 9 years old. She had horrible environmental allergies and coughed constantly. Dr. McGowan was so kind, gentle, comforting to a young mom, who was beside herself. He helped her immensely, and she is now 54 yrs. old. I have complemented Dr. McGowan so many times over the years. Thinking of him now and still thanking him.
