About Me

Biography

Outside of work, I enjoy spending time outdoors with my wife and two kids. Most recently, I have been helping coach my son’s baseball team and teaching my daughter to swim. I also enjoy running with my wife near our Northland home, as well as watching football and college basketball.
 

Care Philosophy

I provide my patients with the risks and benefits of all their treatment options, and I work with them to customize care that will best fit their needs and goals.
 

Area of Interest

I was drawn to interventional cardiology for the positive impact that minimally invasive procedures and new technologies can have on patients. I also emphasize the advantages of preventive care through disease management, exercise, nutrition and weight loss. My interests include atrial fibrillation, coronary artery disease, heart failure, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, peripheral artery disease and valvular heart disease.

10/03/2024

It was just over 10 years ago when I was under the care of now-retired cardiologists at this same office to deal with a very leaky mitral valve. I thought I was overdue to be checked again since the replacement was a decade ago. ALL of the staff at this office were exceptionally friendly and helpful. Dr. Maxfield had obviously taken time ahead of my visit to review my records from a decade ago - he knew which tissue valve I had and was familiar with its performance. He took the time to listen to particular concerns I had, as well as update me on current recommendations for ongoing monitoring and general cardiological health guidelines. He was friendly and patient, and helpful in navigating decisions on additional ongoing monitoring/diagnostics.

Dr Maxfield is a great Dr and keeps you informed about your heart. Takes time and answers your questions.

10/14/2023

Doctor Maxfield was a pleasure to deal with. This was my wife’s first visit with as we have for years seen Doctor Barr who has retired. Doctor Maxfield was easy to talk with as we reviewed my wife’s history and her related health issues. He asked questions and made recommendations about any potential problems. I believe anyone will be able to deal with him. He seems a man dedicated to his family and his profession. We feel well taken care of.

I had a very positive experience with this doctor and would highly recommend him. I was very impressed with his kind demeanor and professionalism. He spent a lot of time explaining my results in a very, calm and considerate manner. He let me ask a lot of questions and didn't interrupt me, and he explained his answers thoroughly. I felt like he truly cared about me and my well being and this was my first time meeting him. I think this kind of care and compassion is hard to find these days. He really is like a breath of fresh air.

He listened well, never acted as though he was in a hurry or had a million other things in his day (which I'm sure he did), and came up with a plan to help me deal with what I've been experiencing.
