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.

Horrible
Dr Drizin treated me many years ago for almost a year. He kept giving me the wrong antibiotics for a lung infection for 6 or 7 months straight. Had he ordered a sputum culture from the beginning he would have realized I needed to be admitted to the hospital. When I insisted on a culture on month 7 and it came back positive he still didn’t treat me instead he referred me to an infectious disease doctor. By the seventh or eighth month I was so very sick I had to be admitted to the hospital. This doctor either didn’t have a clue how to handle my case or didn’t want to do what he was being paid to do. Either way I was treated at the hospital and never returned to his offIce. I would not recommend him.

Dr. Drizin took time to explain my condition, how he was going to treat it, why he chose the plan of action, and went over xrays and scans. He was thorough, kind, and encouraging on this my first visit. I recommend him highly.

When my 94-year-old Mother was experiencing breathing difficulties following a cold, I went in search of a pulmonologist with a high rating on Health Grades, and found Dr. Gary Drizin. From the time we set foot in his office, we were treated as though my Mom had been a long-standing patient. From start to finish, Dr. Drizin's professionalism was astounding! He knew exactly what her problem was, setup a treatment plan, and now she's breathing better than ever! Thank you so much Dr. Drizin!

I came to Dr. Drizin last February sick as a dog from three months of pneumonia. Not only did he pull me out of a state where I couldn't eat, drink or walk, he did it a very kind and gentle way. A wonderful doctor.
