Mid Coast Primary Clinic & Walk In

I called ahead to find out what my copay would be. I told them my insurance information and was informed it would the same as my primary care provider fee. I was suprised when it was doubled when I arrived because it is consisdered urgent care. I also called to inquire weather I should see a doctor or dentist. I suspected a mouth infection and knew I needed antibiotics, but not sure who could treat me the most effectively. I was reassured a doctor was what was needed.
I stopped by first thing in the mornig and there was already a line forming. The staff were all polite, but the check in process in slow. I saw a doctor who prescribed an antibiotic that is not the most effective for my type of infection and refered me to dentist for x-​rays and follow up. I was disappointed now I needed another appointment and more money to be spent because of unclear answers.
The provider was pleasant and informative. Although he made sure to inform me «we dont give narcotics for dental pain». I was kind of taken back, as my request for antibiotics.

Dr Michael MacDonald is extremely thorough and intelligent. My son went to Bowdoin College and preferred Dr. MacDonald to the college’s doctors because he took the time to sit with my son and discuss in detail his health issues and concerns. He was open to suggestions for medication changes and always did his research on unfamiliar medicines. He really cared about his patients and was very sweet! A+ doctor!
