Great experience all around. Dr. Macek's office staff and assistants were very professional and extremely friendly. Having recently relocated to the area, it was fantastic to find a practice that really made me feel, "home".... I am pretty picky and somewhat critical, too. No need to search any further, make an appointment, and you will be referring Dr. Macek and his clinic as well...

Verified patient
Doctor Macek is extremely compassionate and is a doctor that listens to his patients. The staff in the office where above my expectations for any doctors office!! Highly recommended!!!
Verified patient
Tom was great, but we had to fill out all the paperwork again there after we had already filled it out here at ZocDoc because they did not have a filled out copy there. Interesting they did not get or maybe could not print out a copy of what all we had filled out here, but Dr. Tom Macek was wonderful and we highly recommend him.
Verified patient
Dr. Macek was a professional physician that assisted my chronic pain syndrome. I would advise a lot of new patients to set an appointment with this physician!
I have seen more doctors than I care to, but Dr. Macek REALLY stands out! The office staff and doctor were a pleasure to deal with. Dr. Macek has a wonderful demeanor and took his time with me. He listened to everything and discussed multiple treatment options. He was open to alternative ideas and is not one of those doctors who just wants to write an rx and get you out of the office.
he did what I went there for
