Rock Creek Medical

Excellent doctor. Personable, knowledgeable, thorough and no hassle getting an appointment. Appointments occur on time too.
The first doctor I’ve ever had to sit down and explain the results of my medical tests in detail and plain English.
I’m very pleased I found this doctor for primary care.

Dr. McMahon is a wonderful doctor!
The first time I met with him I was worried about my coverage because he just seemed too good, but he assured me that he was covered by my insurance. It’s kinda sad that I just expect doctors to rush through appointments and I was so incredibly impressed with Dr. McMahon’s approach to our first visit; he actually wanted to get to know me and believes in taking a holistic approach.
If you need an excellent doctor, you won’t find someone better than this guy, but I’d call today because soon he may have too many clients!

Dr. McMahon is one of the very few doctors out there that really takes his time to get to know you and listens very carefully to your concerns and problems. He goes above and beyond to find the root of your illness or problem, as opposed to just asking a couple of quick questions and immediately slapping down a few prescriptions that just temporarily mask the issue.
He makes you feel comfortable in his office and I am confident to say I have found my new local and family doctor.

I was having a hard time finding a doctor who focuses on the LGBT community and accepting new patients. I came across an ad for Dr. McMahon’s office and saw the positive reviews on Unilocal.I had a positive experience and Dr. McMahon made the effort to understand the purpose of my visit, my medical history and seemed more concerned about my well being than milking the insurance company and quoting stats. I felt like I was in good hands at the end of the visit and that we’ll have a great doctor/​patient relationship. I imagine his roster of patients will fill up quickly!

After having a horrible weekend with back and neck pain, I called Monday morning to see if a doctor can see me. Dr Mc Mahon was able to see me the same morning. He was very caring and took his time listening to me and explaining the symptoms, treatment and options I have. I felt comfortable in his office and by the time I was out the door I had a positive mindset.
I like the fact that Dr McMahon cared about my whole well being not only the pain I went there for.
I would highly recommend him and his office to friends and family.

In this era of ever-​shrinking HMO/​Medicare reimbursements, ever-​proliferating paperwork demands and whole the rest of the gamut of neoliberalism-​inflicted medical market failures, I never imagined I’d actually have an old school family doctor I trust unconditionally to give me the best and most thoughtful, broadminded and unbelievably well-​informed advice (and treatment) the profession can offer. Because (duh) I am poor and barely insured.
But somehow I landed Dr. Mike (McMahon), the né plus ultra of polymath physicians and proof that great doctors (and people) still occasionally make their beautiful minds available to the 99%. In the past six months he’s treated (and tutored, and talked down) yours truly through a terrifying workplace flare-​up of RSI, a diabolical acid reflux attack*, a recurrent UTI and a disgusting staph infection; all without resorting to the customary inscrutability one expects from the modern impersonal medical establishment, because Dr. Mike is not afraid to tell you basic commonsense stuff like «you’re getting old» and «the microbes are stronger than they used to be» and «guess what life isn’t fair.»
Dr. Drew meets Hippocrates meets Frances Kelsey meets Pope Francis, this one. If there were just two or three more guys like him working on «K Street»… well, inter alia, our health care system would kick Germany’s ass. Depressing, I know. But since this is about you, and your personal needs as a sick person, let’s look at the bright side: Dr. Mike could be making shit tons of money high frequency trading or biotech analyzing for Goldman Sachs or face-​lifting and butt-​lifting and celebrity-​anesthetizing in LA or Miami, but for now he belongs to us. The little guys. (Of K Street.)
God bless him.
I don’t ever say crap like that, but it seemed appropriate.
P. S. I have a very serious boyfriend and I know Dr. McMahon well enough to promise that he is similarly spoken for, so you can rest assured that the above is an objective opinion unsullied by the sort of delusional infatuation I would expect such a glorious individual to routinely inspire in his (younger, more impressionable and less jaundiced of judgment, etc. etc.) patients.
*Ok I know acid reflux doesn’t SOUND all that menacing in the era of Prilosec OTC and so forth, but this wasn’t like that. Nothing I ingested — with the singular rule-​proving exception of almond milk which is all I consumed for four days — did not feel like I was napalming my esophagus. But you know, like all this stuff it flares up and it passes, and Dr. Mike knew exactly how to subtly remind me of that while offering constructive immediate advice.

I’ve never really known my doctor before, but Dr. Michael is eminently approachable, friendly, and knowledgeable. On my first visit, I immediately felt that my care and health was his first priority. Great doctors in the city have a tendency to fill their patient list quickly. I will be referring Dr. Michael to all my friends, and I recommend that you see him as well.

Let’s face it, no one likes going to the doctor. They are not always friendly, they do not listen, and they take your money and then want you in-​and-​out as fast as possible. The visit is usually because you are sick which makes it even more unpleasant. My opinion changed though after my recent annual physical with my first primary care physician in DC. Dr. Michael McMahon at Rock Creek Medical explained his approach to medicine as «a lifelong partnership between doctor and patient that is centered around mutual respect, honesty & open communication.» I almost fell off the table. The holistic approach to my health and well-​being is something I have always wanted from a physician. The staff is friendly, on-​time, and professional. If you are looking for a doctor who cares about you as a patient and as a person, I encourage you to make an appointment with Dr. McMahon.

Amazing Dr. He’s always very helpful and is the type of Doctor all Doctors should aspire to be.
Hope you choose him as your primary care doctor.
