Please know that I am not being overly dramatic here, but Dr. Maybury literally saved my life. As…read morepart of my annual physical and blood work, he noticed that my PSA was 6.0. (My uncle died of prosate cancer and his PSA was 26, so I figured 6 was "low". But what he saw was a bad trend over the past 2 years and strongly recommended I get a biopsy of my prostate. Well - turns out I have prostate cancer with an aggressive tumor (Gleason score of 9 out of 10). He referred me to Dr. Peter Carroll at UCSF, one of the best urologists in the country. He told me it appears we caught it early (thanks Dr. Maybury). I had surgery in March 2025 and thank God, it has been successful. So - I could not be happier with him as my doctor.

Dr. Kwon was prepared for a new patient visit, she was thorough , asked questions , and answered many question that I had. Left me with a follow up package print out that was clear, and Provided specialist doctor referrals. She has a good knowledge of several "specialist " medical conditions. If follow up visit is good, I would raise four stars up to five stars.

I was running late and called the office to ask if I should still come. They asked for my eta,…read morewhich I gave, and asked me to still come. I asked if I'll still be seen and they said yes. When I arrived at my eta exactly, they said it's past the 10 minute grace and the Dr won't be able to see, pretended ignorance about the phone call. Made me wait 38 mins and then told me to see another provider or wait indefinitely in case the Dr can see me for 10 mins at some point, but no guarantees and no idea when. FWIW this Dr has made me wait 30+ mins in the past and I've never complained. The Dr herself is ok but the staff are incompetent and don't care about your time. If the Dr were exceptional, you might consider dealing with her awful staff.

I (I called and got an appointment to talk to him in person about the tests (since the receptionist said I can't talk to him without scheduling an appoinment.) Some of the issues were about my kidneys and I became alarmed. He said "people your age often have this". I asked what I could do about it and he answered "nothing". Then I was denied insurance. The reason they gave said: Chronic Kidney Disease". I was shocked as the Doctor had never mentioned this or the seriousness of my condition. He is the worst, uncaring physician I have ever known and a danger to me. I am looking for another doctor for the rest of this year.

He loaded me up into his own personal car and drove me to the hospital, and made sure I was seen right away. I was immediately hospitalized and in the ICU for a week on IV antibiotics. They were worried the swelling was going to close my throat, but I finally made it. This was in 2008, and I've been a patient ever since.

I cannot say enough about my best doctor ever ever in my whole entire life. She is a tremendously…read morecaring, honest and accessible expert. Lisa is an excellent physician and her network of specialists is also really truly top-notch. She never punts on a recommendation and takes whatever you need to ask about seriously but nonetheless remains candid. She also keeps the communication friendly and encourages updates about more mundane things like work and such that give her insight into what's going on and such. Three important comments: 1) I am a guy and feel 110% comfortable with a female primary care physician (actually feel more comfortable with her than with my male doctors of yore); 2) DO NOT be late. Try it some time and see what I mean. You won't be late ever again! 3) Put your cell phone on vibrate or silent before you enter the office or again push those limits and see what happens. Don't worry, she's not a hard-ass; just trying to make sure we all respect each other and help her stay on schedule etc.

You can be honest with her and she will make you feel secure about your decisions, both past and present for your health. I had a physical with her today and left feeling better than when I came in, and there was nothing wrong to begin with. She makes you feel that she honestly cares about YOU personally, and that is a great feeling to get in today's day and age of crappy health care. Five Stars!!

I am surprised that some people think he's nice and attentive! I have had him for a number of…read moreyears. For the most part he is just "matter of fact". At times he had even been curt especially if I ask questions like " can you explain what causes this", or " What are the side affects of this drug". He even got pissed at me when I started looking at the internet to answer these questions. I don't feel like he really cares. Also, I have have various medical problems now that I'm older and have found that he not only doesn't check on these, I am left feeling unheard and dismissed. I have had many nurses who were much better in all of these regards. I can say more, but let's just say... I will be changing to Kaiser in the new year. This is the fist time that I've ever posted a poor review.

My husband was & firstly this doctor was rude to my husband as he said nothing but give his name I suppose since my husband passed the phone to me and told me the doctor's name who called for me. I take the cell phone and expected at least a 'Hi/Hello so and so and I'm calling to find out what's going on with you...' , What I got was SILENCE. Did not initiate the conversation and asked for my symptoms as other doctors would do. Instead he said nothing so I had to ask if he wanted to know my symptoms since I had NO IDEA what he expected firstly to hear from me. After I told him he just said to stop taking the medicine and to call my PCP the next morning. Hung up. Gosh. I could have just thought of that myself, gee. A compassionless, unhelpful, unprofessional, rude person who should never be a doctor or be employed in any field that has to deal with people. Or maybe he is partial only to CERTAIN people of certain races, etc.

Dr. Ben Maeck has been my primary care physician for over 15 years - and, in my opinion, he is a…read morereally great doctor. Not only is he a super diagnostician - he is also a truly caring person who makes sure to "get it right" and be there when you need him to see you. I, myself, have had several health care challenges, and he has helped me with all of them - referring me out to specialists, when needed - but also handling matters expertly himself, when needed. There is no way I can recommend him more highly - he is a terrific physician and a wonderful person, to boot. If you are looking for a PCP - look no further. He is a San Francisco treasure - "old school" in every good way - but he's also very, very smart and he will take excellent care of you. Call his able assistant Nick and make an appointment. (You can thank me later.)
