He missed 2 of our 4 appts due to being on call but his office staff was on top of getting things taken care of. Despite that issue he really is a great doctor.

Very detail oriented and keeps good track of the patient history.
He was very patient and answered all my questions beside treating me well
May 26, 2011Harsha B.Verified patient
I could not be more satisfied. I've recommended him to two people already who are making appointments. Rose couldn't have been more helpful, and Dr. McAlister was friendly, helpful, and made me feel like a person, not just another patient to check off the list for the day, like so many do. Thank you SO much, and I appreciate everything SO much!
