Nawras Makhsida

Can not believe how connected this man is to every patient. I never feel rushed. I understand and feel free to ask questions. His staff is polite and courteous. Just all good. He is real. He is a straight talker. I found him refreshing.

I've been with Dr. Makhsida for 6 years now, and diabetic for about 20. He is a very good doctor who is very thorough on my visits - everything ranging from my diabetes, my thyroid, swelling or feet and the twice a year "let's check your protein" tests. If I had any criticism it would probably be that I've been very bad about monitoring and just taking my insulin with meals, etc. and he hasn't been more strict with me about it once he gets his A1-C results. I would recommend him to anyone and, in fact, did recommend him to my own brother. Now that he is in the hospital rather than at Mercy, I've only had one appointment that had a long wait time. Before that, my waits were no more than 5-10 minutes. I also agree with other people's comments about his staff/nurse. He had a really good one I think was Tabitha, and she left. The one he had after that was horrible. But I do believe he got a new nurse just prior to moving to the hospital.

I saw several doctors to help me with my diabetes. His way of treatment was easier to understand and apply in my daily life. I like the way he worked with me and how he explained my options.

We treasure Dr Makhsida! We wouldn't trade him for the world!! He's thorough, caring, personable, an all-around love!!

I am very pleased with Dr.Mahksida and his staff. The Doctor takes time to get to know me and my diabetes. He truly makes an effort to help get my blood sugars under control through various methods. He is always willing to share new ideas either presented by himself or from my own research to help control this disease . I couldn't ask for a better Doctor!

I am a type 2 diabetic and was in serious trouble with this disease. Mt schedule is stressful and unforgiving so I was not able to pay attention to the problems that I was having . There are very few Endocrinologists in this area to choose from so I was limited and really didn't like most of them because they were routine and by the book. Dr.Makhsida took my life style and work ethics into consideration and made appropriate changes in my drug therapy and showed extreme concern for my health. He is very congenial and listened to me intently. He really cares! Thank You Dr. Makhsida for standing by me and being the finest Endocrinologist I have had the privilege to meet. I place my trust and life in your hands and feel comfortable doing that. Kudos Doctor to you and your staff.

I have seen several doctors for my thyroid condition, and took different doses and brands of thyroid medicine.I finally found Dr. Makhsida, and he could normalize my thyroid function test within 2 months.

The office is kind and considerate, very organized. Dr. Makhsida takes his time with you and answers your questions fully to where you understand. He has gotten my diabetics and hypothyrodism under super control. Would highly recommend this doctor......and his staff goes far and beyond....

He is very Knowlegable.

Waiting several months for an appt. with Dr. M, I anticipated having a thorough discussion with him about disease mgt. strategies. He spent 13 minutes with me; even less time my second visit (I waited 45 minutes to see him). He is kind and knowledgeable, but I feel like a herd member. Would like him to take time to hear my questions, explain med therapeutic/adverse effects, also, talk about lab results.@
