He used to come see me when we lived out in Silver Creek mom always said she didn't think I would have survived without Dr Mac. ❤ Mom always told me a story of one night I was so sick, she was pacing the floor with me and she looked up and there he was. He was coming home from guelph hospital and just had a feeling he should stop in and check on me. Very special man indeed ❤❤

-The day Bonnie was sick was a Sunday afternoon and Dr. Mac was out on a drive with visitors from Scotland when he got the message from me —he stop at the house and said he would meet us at Georgetown hospital —when we got there he was in the parking lot and said to go on to Sick Kids —we were lucky to have had such a caring Doctor and we are lucky to have Bonnie with no after effects —was a horrible time
-Wonderful man and a joy to work with. A born educator who loved to share his knowledge; he guarded his patient’s privacy ferociously and took every concern they voiced seriously. He was hilariously fun at parties and always game for a prank. So glad he was such a big part of career.
-Great Dr. He was our family Dr. For years. As I recall he liked to ski.
-Yes he a great doctor. I remember he shared an office with Dr. Bruster I think. And there was Dr Chamberlian back in the 50s as well. As a kid with stitches, sprains and broken limbs I saw all three before I was 8 years old.
- Dr Mac was also the first to bring up the idea of having a hospital in georgetown.
-Don't forget Dr.'s William and Thompson - they too fought for a hospital and did great work in Georgetown.

R.I.P. Dr Mack.😔
-I´d say late 50´s, maybe very early 60`s, there was a grand ol´doc in what I believe was his own private home, (a huge front porch, fieldstone pillars) located across from, more or less, the old cinema....or where the Good Will location is/used to be... you never felt the needles going in as you examined his fishing rods and trophies (fish) hanging on the walls of his practice. Great old school gentleman....and I remember he always "fixed you up."
-that was Dr. Paul. He was our family Dr. Before Dr. Macintosh.
-Dr. Paul was our family doc. I remember him coming to the farm to see us when we had measles or chicken pox. If you went to his office you just took the chance that he was “in” and not out on a call. No appointment, ever! He was great!
-Watched 2 Santa Clause parades from his office window. Too exited about the parade . Jumping up and down fell off my bed. Off to Doctor Mac for Stitches

He delivered my daughter at Guelph St. Joseph's Hospital and was out of town when my son was born so Dr. Brewster took over as he shared an office with Dr. Mac at that time. Dr. Mac removed my children's Tonsils in Georgetown Hospital. We always kept in touch with him after we moved. He was a wonderful man, friend, and Doctor. He is dearly missed.

-I can remember being terrified of Dr Mac when I was little, because he had harry hands. Then I had my pre high school check up and just happened at that time to have an embarrassing love bite. (Blush) He told me I was headed for trouble. Well never got in trouble. I was a good girl. HA HA
