Markowitz Norman MD

I’ve been seeing Dr. Markowitz for about a year now, and the experience has been night and day from my last doctor.
He’s thorough when he knows what he’s talking about, honest when he doesn’t, and doesn’t dance around with platitudes. I’m going to guess that’s a bit off-​putting by people who are used to being coddled, but for me, I really appreciate his approach. I don’t want to be pals and talk about the Tigers game for 8 of the 10 minutes he’s in the room. I want to not feel sick. Done and done.
Getting a same-​day appointment isn’t too difficult if you’ve got something legit, and though it may not be with the Doctor himself, his PA is at least as good. I’ve never once felt like «Okay, go get the doctor» when I’ve seen her.
I also appreciate not being left in the waiting room forever, or being brought back near my appointment, only to be left in the exam room for 45 minutes. When I’ve asked for a same-​day appointment, the longest I’ve waited was maybe 20 minutes total. With appointments, it’s usually about 10 minutes.
I’m pretty quick to change doctors when something seems amiss, but I can honestly say that I don’t think I’ve ever been to a practice that’s instilled — and more importantly, earned — nearly implicit trust.

I have been a patient for many years. He and his partner are thourough and available when you need them. I trust their opinion and diagnosis and have referred them to many people in the past. If you are looking for a good internist and family doctor, this is a great place.
