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.

Wonderful Doctor
Dr. Macias takes the time to listen and run all the tests possible/needed. She's not shy to ask for a second opinion from other doctors or even other practices. Even when I send messages (via Follow My Health) she is usually the one to answer them. Most doctors have their RN reply. I highly recommend Dr. Macias.

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Macias?
Dr Macias is a terrific doctor! She explains things in a way that is easily understood. Her demeanor makes your medical situation feel like one way or the other you’re going to be OK. Dr Macias seems to have excellent knowledge of all aspects of Oncology which goes a long way when you have anxiety of the unknown.

Norma in memory of my Dad, Arturo – Oct 09, 2018
×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Macias?
Doctor Macias has excellent bedside manners. She builds relationships with the patient and his/her family. Her tenacity, leadership are some adjectives to describe the seriousness of her passion in the medical world. My family and I are so grateful for the care that she provided to my father, Arturo García Díaz. We would have been lost without her, empty. Her knowledge is bigger than the universe and she gave us the peace of mind that we needed every time. We are grateful to her, to her heart.
