Yes, I would just like to have more, I would like to have more examinations that we used to have in the past, like checking the fingers, the toes, eyes, and that is not done now. I don't know if that has been stopped, but that's what I'd like to know. And also, we used to get urinalysis and everything included, but that seems to have passed.

Dr. Maher has been my PCP for many years now. I don't think I could possibly find a physician I would prefer. Nine years ago I moved my residence to a location four times further away from the Newton-Wellesley area. I travel an hour often in heavy traffic to see Dr. Maher because I absolutely feel that he listens to concerns. I value the doctors patient relationship I have with him greatly.
