Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr. Nussbaum is a nice man. His capabilities if diagnosing and properly medicating his patients are what I doubt. I am in the medical profession and many of his actions regarding dosing adjustments, whether increasing or decreasing are careless, borderline dangerous. He never remembers previous conversations and contradicts himself quite often. I would go as far to say his personality depending on the day seems induced to the point of slurring and drooling in one instance.

The incompetence is strong with this one. Perhaps not as strong as the arrogance though. Not only do we wait for 2+ hrs each time we have an appointment, he casually disregards medications that have worked for me in the past. Its as if all those years other doctors have spent trying to adjust my meds to the point where I can function dont matter to him at all. Or this is just his way of assuring I have to come back again and again so he can continue to bill my insurance.

My Dr. of over 25 years has retired, and some how i got stuck with this guy. He is re-doing my meds and lowering meds ive been on for years, and doesn't seem to care of the after affects and side effects of doing so. Waiting time may vary anywhere between 45 minutes to 2 hours or more. Might as well cancel your whole day if your coming to this office.
