Not see a nurse but you do not offer that option to indicate that you didn't see a nurse
Really trust Dr. Malone
I'm very grateful for the excellent care I received.
Dr. Malone has always been amazing. I saw him several years ago for a wrist injury that went undiagnosed for 7 years. Within 5 minutes of speaking to me he diagnosed one issue as *** and treated it with a cortisone shot and at the next visit we discovered there was a second issue that needed surgery. He performed my surgery and everything has been smooth sailing ever since. Came back in recently for a follow up on the *** and he remembered me and asked how everything was going. The appointment went so smoothly because he listened to my theory that the pain was due to the *** acting up again. All around amazing visits.
Everyone I interacted with was very attentive and professional.
I would highly recommend Dr. Kevin Malone.

Nothing bad. Dr Malone was my doctor years ago and I needed follow up for osteoarthritis in my hands. I didn't want to see anyone but him.He is a professional, and knows his stuff.All the staff are very nice and competent. The facility is absolutely wonderful too.
I felt that despite the fact that Dr. Malone had an increased workload due to understaffing, I was well taken care of. The procedure was well explained, including the risks. His bedside manner is very professional and positive. I hope that my ongoing level of care is the same.
He was on time, and fast. I loved it. Total time in office from start to finish was under 30 minutes. Keep up the good work.
I was EXTREMELY impressed with the care I received from the minute I walked in the door for pre admission testing to being wheeled out post surgery. Thank you UH!

All of my experiences with Dr Malone have exceeded my expectations. He is kind, compassionate, calm, caring and very reassuring. If there is a higher level than 10, he deserves it. The same goes for his staff.
Dr Malone was great, the examinations he performed on me were very quick and small, so the appointment was very quick. Positive that it was quick and efficient, negative that it felt like it would be hard to perform a thorough check that quickly.
