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.

I found Dr. Benowitz very helpful. He was thorough and answered all my questions. I feel confident that he can handle my thyroid and osteoporosis problems. I was impressed by his friendliness and the time he spent with me. He is almost always very prompt and often I don’t even have time to sit down in the waiting room before I am called back to see him.

I went in for a health visit but he just wasted my time. The medical information he talked about was made up and he didn't do anything. He was obsessed with treating my hypogonadism I went in with growth hormone deficiency concerns. He doesn't listen and this was felt enough that I personally felt abused. He refused to listen about my health history and other medical conations I suffer from. The provider showed a clear agenda to make my health worse not better.

I was appalled by his bedside manner. He made 3 very offensive comments that were out of line. He told me to go on a diet that hasn't been around since the year 2000 and on a way lower calorie diet than the dietician said I should be on. He wasn't addressing my condition, only my weight which is partially caused by my condition. Don't waste your time/money!
