His office staff is HORRID. I have to say the way that girl behind the counter treats me, would be the one reason I never see him again. Hes cold, and seems rather uncomfortable with Social situations and touching. Ive seen worse, as far as the whole not touching weirdness for a doc goes. So, Id say its NOT horrible, but it is weird. I really do appreciate his late hours and ease of working you into his schedule. Ive run into him on the street, and he smiles and seems ok, so maybe its just office politics and stuff making him uncomfortable. Who knows. So basically, his hours and availability make him worth seeing. his front desk girl... seriously, shes the reason I dont go in .

I like Dr. Macaulay very much and have used him as my general doctor for the last several years. Unfortunately I have several doctors I must see regularly, I can say that Dr. Macaulay's is the only office that isn't run like a fast food restaurant. The wait is seldom more than 15 minutes. He has always been very helpful, knowledgeable and I have recommended him to friends who needed a doctor.

First, why would anyone go to an internist for an ingrown toe nail? I have been going to Dr. Macaulay for years and he is very knowledgeable and more importantly, he is not a pill pusher like most doctors. He gets to the core of the issue and finds a solution without always taking out his prescription pad. He is great.

One of the worst doctors I've ever encountered. I once went to see him for an ingrown toenail and he stared at it from across the room, horrified. Then he said maybe I could have an antibiotic, maybe not. He also always looks at me like I'm crazy. The only reason I ever see him is because he always has availability, which is no surprise. He is rude, terse and unkind. Never again.

Dr. Macaulay used to be amazing, but his bedside manner has declined sharply in recent years. He is very knowledgeable, however, so that usually makes up for his lack of friendliness.
