Dr. Brian Jon Macfalda, DO

I have been seeing Dr.Macfalda for 2-3 years. Dr. Macfalda and staff were great, He wanted to see me every 4 months with blood work which we did. I'm from the UP with a brain injury. They called me to do a telehealth appt. I didn't know how the lady was getting angry I was frustrated. T thought after i'm not letting my insurance pay for a 1" by 1" call. I have been waiting a year for a appt ther excuse we haven't made up the schedule. 4months is far from a year. In and out and here take this pill also. No time

We are so happy to have Dr. Macfalda in the Mid-Michigan area. He spent over 30 minutes with my husband and I. Dr. Macfalda asked a lot of questions to help get a better understanding of my husband's conditions and try to find solutions. He was also open to our questions.

Dr McFalda has been treating my husband for Parkinson's for several years. He always takes time to listen to our concerns and makes recommendations. He has had us try different medications, encouraged us to participate in physical and speech therapy, and has always been available if we have questions. We have a direct phone line to his nurse and she always responds to our concerns as soon as she confers with him. We live in Escanaba so he tries to schedule our appointments in this area so we don't have to travel to Marquette. As a caregiver he has helped me with advice also. We really appreciate all of his support and guidance and trust his judgment.

Unlike many doctors I've had experience with in recent years, Dr. MacFalda makes eye-to-eye contact with me; doesn't spend the appointment time staring at a computer screen and typing notes; does listen to me and doesn't seem in a hurry to get to the next patient.

This physician was rude and angry on the phone towards a colleague, the writer of this review. Threatened to solve his issues by contacting the department the colleague was calling from. My advice is that he informs himself before arguing. It will be helpful that he is councelled to respect not only himself, but others, known or unknown to him.

Nurse doesn't return phone calls. Wait time is ridiculous. Can't make follow up appointments. Doctor is ignorant.
