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.

Rude, condescending, arrogant
This guy sure has a big head for not ever doing anything. While at an appointment for stomach issues, he will try to prove he's the smartest in the room. No real knowledge or help was given.

One of a kind Doc
Dr Saperstein is the epitome of a doctor who went into medicine because he wanted to help people. He never rushes, he speaks to you, not down to you and always with kindness. His humor and tenderness make you feel comfortable immediately. I know he is retiring soon and I’m happy he will have time with family and golf but they just don’t make docs like him anymore and he’ll be missed more than he knows.

Not impressed
Seemed condescending and then rattled off his degrees and years of experience. Said things I knew helped were fake and waste of money. Failed to look over all of the labs I showed him on my phone and said "no way" to hepatitis. He did later call back and say he saw new labs, actually the same ones, and that there had been hepatitis b.

Dr Saperstein is a God Send
I’ve been having bowel issues since October and my previous gastro had no idea why and didn’t give me anything to help it. My friend referred me to Dr Saperstein and after seeing him , 2 days later with what he prescribed , I am back to normal and can live my life without having to worry about bathroom issues.

Dr. Saperstein has done a colonoscopy on me in the past and unlike two I had elsewhere by other Doctors that left me not wanting to ever have it done again, Dr. Saperstein's procedure was not painful as in the past. I would d have it done again if needed. Then I had an appointment the other day regarding a CT scan and was impressed with his explanation of the CT and advise going forward.

I have been a patient of Dr. Saperstein for at least 20 years and I have never met a more caring Doctor ever! He takes his time to talk with you, explains all your options. Besides the professionalism, he gets to know you as a person and your family and never seems to forget any stories you may have told him. He has that personal touch that makes him an outstanding Doctor!
