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.

Colonoscopy
On 09/09/22 I have the pleasure of being cared for by Dr. Schuller and his phenomenal staff at his State-of-the-Art facility in Syosset. The prep work has been dramatically improved! This alone should remove anyone's hesitancy from getting a Colonoscopy. I awoke from the procedure with a positive outcome feeling reborn with a new life ahead of me. My Paternal Grandfather and First cousin both died retched long-suffering deaths from colon cancer. This was the second colonoscopy I had the good fortune for Dr. Schuler to perform. I can't say enough good things about Dr. Schular and his excellent staff!

After being in Dr. Schullers care for 3+ years my insurance was no longer taken by his office. Nobody called to tel me. Dr. schuller prescribed me life altering medication. I called the office to kindly ask for a refill to buy me time to fin another doctor. I was told NO. Its disgusting that Dr. Schuller wouldn't send in in 1 refill. I was told to pay $300 out of pocket to his office to come in for a refill. Don't see this dr.

Dr. Schuller is a first-rate physician and his staff is highly professional. My long-term PCP retired at year-end and I went to Dr. Schuller for an annual physical. Everything was handled with efficiency and empathy, from the scheduling of the appointment to the short wait upon arrival to Anita's EKG and blood testing to the examination by the physician. Dr. Schuller is extremely knowledgeable and thorough. Highly recommended! UPDATE: Dr. Schuler called this Saturday morning with blood-test results (didn't assign to an assistant or wait until the work week) - I very much appreciate his personal approach.

Dr. Alan Schuller has been my doctor for over 15 years. He is extremely professional, caring and well informed about the latest tests, diagnosis, and procedures for gastroenterology issues. I have had problems with digestive issues and he always takes the time to care for me. In addition, I have had three colonoscopies and every time Dr. Schuller, his anesthesiologists , and nurse were caring which made this test easier for me. I highly recommend him.

He is the nicest man and the most wonderful doctor. He has diagnosed my stomach problems now three times. Gallbladder needed to go, then a hernia, and now some crazy intestinal inflammation. He listens attentively, he is genuinely concerned about your welfare and relates to you as a person, not just a patient. I never feel rushed out of my appt; he takes the time to explain things clearly.l I cannot say enough about him! OH, one more thing. He's ON TIME!! What a breath of fresh air that is!
