Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr. MacDonald and partner, Dr. Dale Lent, helped me get through a hard 8 days in Lititz Heart. Good fellas. Contemporary docs. Easy to talk to. Dr. MacDonald gave me a great, understandable explanation of what was going on with me, even used the white board for drawings. Ha!

You will not find a more caring and compassionate Dr. in Lancaster than Dr. MacDonald. He cared for my mother through various surgeries and then her cancer treatments until her passing, and I've seen him myself for over 10 years. He's very personable, patient, and understanding, and is one of the few medical professionals I trust completely with my health. I give him my highest of recommendations!
