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.

The goctor demands compliance with his recommendations. Aims only at positive results. His team consists of only professionals. I strongly recommend his clinic.

Dr. Shapiro will not send you to a hospital for a biopsy if he can do it himself. That alone will save you$$$ and time. He explained everything in detail before and after the procedure (which went flawlessly). The staff is amazing. Everyone was polite , friendly and respectful. Finally a Miami practice with A1 staff all around

Horrible attitude! He should not be practicing medicine if he does not know how to talk to patients and run an office. He fights with his staff and gets mad at you if you ask a question! I have never experienced such a TERRIBLE doctor and office in my life. Do not trust him or his opinions. Go anywhere else! Urgent care is better! No medical oversight or medical management. Waited 2 hours to see him literally and he was a grouch! Go to a professional! He is not interested in helping patients.
