I think Dr. Macrum is an excellent physician. He spends time with you. He's very patient, and very knowledgeable, and that's somebody that I would highly recommend to anybody who's in need of a very good cardiologist.

Dr. Macrum was on time. He treated me with respect. He checked everything that had to be checked, my heart, my stomach, everywhere that had to be done. He did a wonderful job and I will always be seeing him every six months.

Dr. Macrum is outstanding. He listens well, he is methodical, and very intelligent, even insightful. He has tremendous patient care and he is an outstanding part of your organization. So I give him an A plus, plus, plus, plus.

Yeah, hi, this is (PHI removed). When it comes to Dr. Macrum, don't change anything. I just came off a really bad experience with a cardiologist and Dr. Macrum rebuilt my faith in medicine. This guy is like in that upper tier of doctors. He's like warm, empathetic, and really good at explaining. He's like taking a science class, so I loved him. One of the absolute best doctors I've ever dealt with and I've dealt with a lot of doctors. So whatever he's doing, keep doing it because he's fantastic. Anyway, thank you very much.
