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.

Very professional and thorough, yet gives you all the time you need and answers all questions. Has an exceptional fund of knowledge. Could not recommend more highly. Terrific internist!

I have known Dr. Malone for over 25 years as both a patient and an RN working with him many years ago. I have seen him "behind the scenes" and he is professional, ethical, and truly cares about his patients. He is as good as they come. He knows what he knows, and knows what he doesn't know. A man of deep wisdom. Calls a specialist in when needed, and will take excellent care of you when he doesn't need a specialist. I have referred all of my family, friends, and anyone who asks to him and all have had the same experience without exception. Dr. Malone sets the example for all internal medicine specialists.

I have had Dr Malone for my primary physician for about the last 10 years. He is also other family members’s physician. He is a very caring physician and takes time to cover your concerns and refers you to someone to address concerns out of his speciality. I haven’t had a better physician ever. He is my doctor of choice and I trust his medical ability and also as a person of high standard.

Dr. Malone has been my primary care physician for more than 16 years. I can honestly state he is the best family practictioner I, and my spouse have ever had -- at my age, that is saying something. I find his care to be no nonsense, straight forward, exceeding clear and concise. The man knows his business and he takes care of business. HIs patients are his business, never distracted, always focused, regardless of what may be happening with his own circumstances. This recent visit concerned a pinched nerve in my back - trying to remove a frozen lug nut from a truck wheel. Too stuborn to back off, I knew if I just applied a bit more pressure it would break, well perhaps a few years ago, this time around it broke me. Beause I waited before seeking treatment, the pain started to radiate similar to kidney stone pain, something I am all too familiar. A short round of prednisone defused that notion, now I can move forward with a regime of aftercare, at the caring hands of Dr. Stephen Malone.

We’ve been with Dr Malone since 1996. We won’t change Drs !!! Dr Malone will ALWAYS take time to hear you out as to why you are seeing him, give wonderful advice that is totally understandable and then choose a treatment plan that moves up the chain of medicines prescribed slowly. If one line of treatment doesn’t do the job, he will move things up a notch whether it be a different drug or a specialist, should he believe you need one. As for his recommendations regarding specialists : He’s been spot on with the other Drs in our area that he believes would be the best for your personal medical situation. I know this as I’ve had so many joint and nervous system issues over the years. Dr.Malone has never missed in his referrals to other specialists. If you desire a Dr that will take care of you, look after you, take time to talk/explain what he believes is going on with / in you - this is truly the Dr you need. And my entire family agrees. Thank you Dr Malone for caring for us for24 years!

Due to the Covid-19 virus we had a telehealth visit with Dr. Malone. The week before we had our blood work and the office had excellent safety precautions. Dr. Malone reviewed our bloodwork, asked about any health issues. He assured us he was there for us if we needed him. Dr. Malone is an excellent physician...compassionate and knowledgeable.

Dr. Malone is a great doctor to have as my physician looking over my medical conditions. He listens very well to what you have to tell him about your medical situation and then he puts his medical training and knowledge in place to help solve the matter. He gets 5 stars every time I have had to go to him for treatment. He has also always had a great staff assisting him.

Have been a patient for 15 years and Dr. Malone is a caring and thorough physician. He is an excellent diagnostician and has kept me in good shape and I have been able to maintain an active lifestyle following his advice. He listens and has been very instrumental in making sure that I have followed up with additional therapy from Neurosurgery and cardiology. He has been encouraging and helps me to remain an active 79 year old.

Having been a patient for 25+ years and, highly, recommend Dr. Malone, especially for your primary care physician. He addresses all my health concerns, as well as, his concerns for my health treatment. Dr. Malone's referral have been prompt, with specialist providing excellent treatment and communication with him. Medication refills are filled in a timely manner. Questions and concerns are addressed and resolved promptly. The wait time is a few short minutes when you show up on time for you appointment(s). Being a long time patient makes it stress free to see Dr. Malone. He remembers me, my family, my work history on top of my medical history. He is very professional, caring, polite and friendly with his undivided attention at every visit. I trust Dr. Malone with my health.
