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.

Amazing, compassionate, brilliant doctor. Thank you Dr. Fishman and the Texas Children's Hospital team.

Dr. Fishman was my daughter's doctor for about 3 years until she got to old to go to Texas Children's. We absolutely loved him and his nurse Debby. He is smart as a whip, has a good sense of humor and a great bedside manner. We were very sad when we had to leave him, but he referred us to another doctor that we like very well also. He made sure we were taken care of.

My son was admitted to ER at Texas Children's Hospital in 2011 for liver malfunction. We were referred to Dr. Fishman within 2 days for further diagnosis. We are forever indebted to his expertise and experience in diagnosing my son's very rare genetic metabolic disorder without extensive and painful testing. Dr. Fisherman was very professional and compassionate in explaining my son's conditions was very reassuring to us. He also recommended an excellent doctor for us when we moved to Ohio.
