Dr. MacDougal has always been excellent. He has a good bed-side manner, and I believe he cares about his patients. He has helped me to gradually decrease the opiods I am taking in a safe way that hasn't caused major withdrawal symptoms.

He was more interested in teaching than my questions. Short with his answers. Dismissive.
