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.

You guys are awesome.

Best Doctor in Middle Tennessee
Dr. Macdonald has been my PCP for over 20 years. He also was my Dads doctor for nearly 20 years before he passed away. Dr. Macdonald is very compassionate, caring, gentle and kind in all my meetings with the multitude of treatments and injections he has given me through the years. He also is thorough and detailed in explaining everything in layman’s terms. I could not recommend a better Doctor. Van Woody

Great Doc!
Dr. MacDonald has been my PCP for over 15 years. He has always been compassionate about providing great care and takes the extra time to listen and ensure he's helping me through the stages of life. I'm 60 now, take meds and look for his guidance to ensure my health is staying on track. He's an honest person and has let me know when I wasn't holding up my side of the deal. I like his approach and appreciate his availability whenever I reach out to him. There needs to be more people on this earth like Dr. Mac. and people wouldn't have anxiety whenever they have to go see their doc. I highly recommend him as a primary care physician.

My experience with Dr MacDonald has been 5 star for over 10 years. He listens, he explains, you feel comfortable asking questions, you feel welcome, not rushed, and he communicates as if you are his only patient during the visit. New patients will be very impressed you choose this doctor

Love Dr. MacDonald. He has been my doctor for years and is always willing to answer questions and address my concerns. My husband and both daughters have now switched and made him their Primary Care doctor.

Dr. MacDonald was my son's treating physician on the day he was born almost 10 years ago; because of his extremely good care of my son, our entire family started seeing Dr. MacDonald as our Primary Care Physician! We have been so pleased with his care of all of us for almost a decade! If you want a physician who will listen carefully to you and share his experience and expertise and has "bedside" manner that is great for children, adults and the elderly, then you will love Dr. James MacDonald!
