I am a new patient of Dr. McFarlanes. I have never felt more comfortable with a doctor than I did with him. He put me at ease right away and took plenty of time to discuss all of my concerns and some of his own. I know I am in good hands with him.

Dr. McFarlane is very easy to communicate with and he listens intently to everything you tell him. He shares his knowledge and reasoning in a very understandable manner. He goes as far as carefully considering any positive reasons that you think are involved in your condition And openly discusses them with you. For me, it was like having a conversation with my exceptionally knowledgeable son who truly cared for my well-being!!

Dr. McFarlane Is an exceptional physician, he is caring,attentive and understanding. He is truly a pleasure to have as a doctor. I am very grateful that within a few visits, he has made me feel so comfortable and trusting that I have taken his advice and completed tests, labs and routine checkups that I have avoided for years. He is most definitely a God sent.

I liked this doctor I never seen him before, my PC doctor was unavailable for this appointment and was happy with this doctor and wouldn't mind seeing him again if I needed to.

Dr McFarlane is the best primary care physician I've ever had! He listens to me, he asks me what I think and doesn't tell me what I have to do! We make the decisions about my care together! He's compassionate and most importantly he's intelligent! He is the whole package so to speak!

Dr Paul McFarlane is wonderful. He listened to me and my concerns and addressed them. He is personable and kind. I could tell he read my chart before I was seen and was aware of things my former primary doctor did not address. It is .my pleasure to be seen and heard by a knowledgeable doctor.

Oh, my goodness; what a pleasure to be Dr McFarlane's patient! He is a genuinely-empathetic and thorough healthcare provider. So if anyone is looking for a doctor who will really listen to their physical AND emotional health issues -- then, get them on the road to wellness -- make an appointment with confidence.
