More about Dr. Craig Albert, MD

For patient safety, MemorialCare Medical Group providers will not prescribe most controlled substances (including opioids like codeine, and benzodiazepines like valium) for new patients they have only evaluated via telehealth, rather than in person. Many controlled substances have a high potential for abuse, and overdose on controlled substances may result in death. Without an in person visit, the potential risk outweighs the intended benefit. If you believe you may need a prescription for a controlled substance, please schedule an in person visit. Dr. Albert made medicine his chosen profession so that he could help people. Board certified in family medicine, he particularly enjoys the bond created with his patients and their families. When he is not working, Dr. Albert spends time with his two children. He also enjoys golf, traveling, basketball, gardening, and camping and hiking. Dr. Albert's special medical interests include: Pediatrics, Dermatology, and Preventive Medicine.

I have been seeing Dr. Albert for decades and count on him to help manage my numerous health issues and coordinate my care with the specialists I see. The staff is always friendly and make me feel welcome. I would like to compliment Doris in the lab for the best blood draw in many years...no bruising for once and she listened to me when I told her that certain veins would not work and mean poking me several times to find a good vein, which usually happens.
I feel I am getting the best health care possible. Dr. Albert and his team are knowledgeable, helpful, and cheerful. Dr. Albert is an excellent listener and always addresses all of my concerns. I give him the highest recommendation possible.
I love Dr. Albert. he has always been very thorough with examinations, follow-up, prescription and non-prescription medicines, and daily exercise routines for me to follow. I have had high cholesterol, borderline diabetes, renal failure for many years. I was most pleasantly surprised with my last lab results that showed all my numbers for the mentioned conditions to finally be in normal ranges. Dr. Albert aggressive recommendations have proven to be successful. A+ for Dr. Albert!
The Front Office Staff is always pleasant and helpful. This was my first visit to Dr. Albert and I was very pleased with his services.
Dr Albert is the very best!
my primary care physician was on vacation. Dr. Albert saw me in her absence and I liked him very much. He did not have full knowledge of my medical history because he is not my primary care Dr. He listened and turned out to be right on with his suspicions as to a diagnosis. He was excellent.
I have been a patient of Dr Albert's for over 10 years. He is by far the best doctor I have ever had !! He really cares about my health conditions and always takes the time to address any issues or concerns I may have
