I take a Rx that is a non controlled substance. Its a non narcotic, non stimulant, non addictive medication. This Rx can easily be written w multiple refills to be picked up at any pharmacy. Yet Dr Money Hungry insists its a controlled substance (even though it clearly states on the Medication Guide Attached to the bottle under section 9 that it's not) and that I must make a Dr appt every mo to see him in order to pick it up. I am a self pay patient, it costs me $90 out of pocket to pick up a free medication because Dr Macia... read more

I'd give him 0 stars. He doesn't refer his patients to specialists. He is greedy. He experiments on them, like my mom. Sent her to a hospital close to him rather than the Bethesda heart hospital. She had CHF. He administered cardeviol and 7 hours later she died. We were never called and nobody was there for her, especially him. He never showed up. She waited for him. We all blame him for neglecting her. He did something similar with my dad. Made him suffer for weeks rather than refer a dermatologist. Run from this guy!

well you never have to wait long, and you can set your timer for six minutes as that is all the time he will give you. he is not friendly and shows no compassion. he writes out your perscriptions with his back to you. he has no interest in listening or checking out your health concerns. pain medications are for only the terminally ill patients. all I got was sicker in my time with him. this is just a job to him, no human connection needed. he only uses perception of a patient. he needs a heart

Family has had Dr. Macia for the past 15 years . We have found him to be highly qualified and professional . He spends time with his patients and explains his diagnosis and clear and understandable terms. His office staff are friendly and knowledgeable. Appointments are easily made and wait times are quite reasonable .

This is by far the worst doctor I have ever been to. And one of the nurses is the rudest i have yet to encounter. They don't see prescriptions through and will leave you in pain without hesitation. If you call to ask for help they will give you attitude like it's your fault they called in a dosage that doesn't exist or a drug that your insurance doesn't cover. If you want a doctor that actually cares about your comfort and well being this is not the one.
