  1. Knowledgeable and personable and knew me and my situation.

  2. Highly motivated and eager to help

  3. Dr.Macon is hands down my most favorite doctor I've ever had and that's saying something considering with unhealthy issues all the doctors I've seen! He is so patient , takes time to listen , extremely knowledgeable and if there's something he isn't sure of he will be honest and say so and/or find an answer. He also doesn't talk down to me or my family which can be hard to find in some care providers. Can't say enough good things about him!

  4. Dr. Macon shows excellent empathy and understanding of both the patient's and the caregiver's concerns while also demonstrating his thorough knowledge of cardiology and its interconnectedness with other systems in the body.

  11. Dr Macon is a wonderful and highly skilled cardiologist. I had 7 years of bad treatment with doctors outside of ohsu for my heart disease and I would be gone already if Dr Macon hadn't come into my life when he did. He has gone above and beyond for me multiple times. to open up resources outside of my medical needs such as housing support, dental care, and even writing letters of recommendations a couple times. I feel completely blessed having such a great cardiologist and the time I have had in the past few years is because of the care he gave me and continues to do today. He doesn't know how special he is to me but I'm super lucky to be a patient of his thats for sure. Dr Conrad Macon, you're a gifted and intelligent cardiologist and I owe you my life for taking such great care of me. I had completely lost all faith and trust in doctors and then I was treated by you. Thank you for being the best cardiologist ever . Thank you from the depths of my gigantic
