"Dr. McIntosh is excellent; a fine doctor and a lovely person"
"Unfortunately I do have to see many Doctors, but from the first time that had an appointment with Dr. McIntosh she has been nothing short of the most kind, compassionate, knowledgable, supportive hands on Doctor that I know. She cares about her patients and their families which is so important in the line of work that she does. I have reached out to her during, after & before office hours and she always responds. She has spoken to me and "up for me" in various situations concerning my treatment which has made a tremendous difference in how my case has been handled. I know that I am in good hands because I hear not only from her staff but many others that have come to Englewood the hard work, dedication and diligence that she has put in for all her patients so I am thankful to have her as my Doctor."
