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.

My doctor was good. He told me about my heart and what we would need to do about medicine, and he was fast.

The doctor basically dismissed all of our concerns based on the echocardiogram. I have quite a concerning history of symptoms and family history of heart failure, and he dismissed my symptoms as normal for a teenager.

Not compassionate and seems a bit spiteful and deg
Left feeling like my problems and concerns were taken as a joke since I wasn't vaccinated.. also he made a point to put on my records a comment to hinder the process of my disability when my disability is not even what I seen him for

Dr Frishhertz is often all over the place in his medical direction & I’ve never left feeling like i know how my heart is doing. He will say one thing and then say the opposite next time you see him. He strictly goes off of test results and tells you how you’re feeling verses listening. He is very smart, but he can’t relate or understand patients individual needs. It’s really hard to get in to see him & if you do get in you have LONG wait times because he’s double booked.
