Cassie Maciel, MD

Tell us what makes you passionate about being a healthcare provider. I love building real connections with patients and helping them navigate their health with clarity and confidence. I believe good care starts with listening and treating the whole person, not just the symptoms. My goal is to make every visit feel supportive, efficient, and meaningful. In your opinion, what should be the role of a primary care provider for a patient, taking into account both physical health and behavioral health needs? A primary care provider should be your first point of contact and a consistent partner in your health. That means caring for both your physical and mental well-being, helping you understand what’s going on, and guiding you through decisions. My goal is to make sure you feel supported, informed, and never alone in your care. Tell us a little bit about yourself. What do you like to do in your spare time? I enjoy staying active, spending time outdoors, and exploring new places. I also value time with family and close friends.
