I don't give many 5 star reviews, but Dr. MacDonald is a 5 star kind of guy. He repaired a tear that was causing unbareable reflux, and I've never had a problem since. In addition to his skill, he's a really funny guy which helped to put me at ease.

Dr. MacDonald is a prince in his profession. My husband needed his gallbladder out and has a heart condition, as a person who takes warfarin when you hear the word surgery a certain amount of fear settles in. Dr. MacDonald put us both at ease, performed the surgery and Thomas went home that same day. I would recommend him to absolutely anyone without hesitation. Thank you Dr . MacDonald for being the professional you are.

I consulted with Dr. Macdonald for my appendix. He was kind, considerate and very easy to speak to. The office staff was friendly and they got me in right away when I told them that I was seen in the emergency room. My surgery went will without any complications. I was up and about in two days.

Dr. Macdonald was referred to me by my physician friends. He did a double Ing. Hernia. He spend a lot of time with me explaining the procedure and my post-op care. Surgery went well and I was feeling like myself within one week. I am a runner, biker and golfer. I am back to doing the things I love, Thanks to Dr. Macdonald. Great job!

I had stones in my bladder and my family doctor referred me to doctor Robert. He started asking questions about the pain i was having very nicely and he told me why i had these problems. He then told me i have to do a surgery and i was really scared, however, he confronted me in a very nice, comforting and satisfying way which made me less freaked out about my surgery.
