Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Wish I had the same positive experience other parents have had. Saw this doctor for several years, and overtime he became arrogant and condescending, esp when out of his areas of expertise. Probably a good enough doc for basic things. Sadly his misdiagnosis has let my child down, delaying getting the correct treatment. Also, the practice has grown too large. Regret not leaving sooner.

Dr. McGahey is an extremely caring, attentive, & knowledgeable pediatrician. He constantly stays up-to-date on all medical research, he provides detailed care & information, and he treats each child with respect, kindness & compassion. We honestly feel like he treats our twins with the same attentive kindness he'd give his own children! He is an amazing doctor and we are so happy to have him care for our family now, and for many years to come. :)

Dr. McGahey has been caring for my children for the past ten years. He is always attentive, answers questions and addresses concerns fully, and has excellent bedside manner with myself and the children. I refer all my friends and family with children to him, and will continue to do so. A wonderful practice.

We recently switched insurances and it’s been a difficult journey trying to find a dr. Dr. McGahey and his staff at the Clinton Township location have been awesome and so helpful to work with! We’ve met twice so far for appts for my sons and I appreciate his attention to detail and time spent with us as patients. I get the impression he truly cares for his patients and I am thankful we found him and this practice.

Dr Mcgahey is alway professional very kind and caring. He’s been my son’s doctor for many years. He is always update on current practice. He also makes sure we are educated as well. 8/10 complaints are the patient wants an antibiotic for a virus. Please listen to the doctor’s explanation prior to writing negative reviews.

I have been dealing with an on going issue with my 6 yr old. We normally see dr gappy (who we love) but when he got sick we could only get an appointment with dr mcgahey. We've seen him twice and I am so upset with the way he spoke to me treating me like I'm an idiot. I asked him to send my sons strep test out for a formal culture twice and he told me that was not going to prove anything different from the rapid test. Which is absolutely wrong. I can't stand doctors who treat me like I'm stupid
