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.

Best of Breed- II
Now to finish the prior diatribe for this considering best in class cardio treatment. Most worthwhile to explain the basis for my full recommendation. Being highly involved in my mother's course of care x 30 yrs, I became somewhat expert in itMy own history begins later and is substantial in and of itself. I have been treated at both Cornell and Columbia prior to the merger and afterwards. Admittedly an overly descriptive background, I think I know a little bit about Best of Breed cardiovascular treatment and cannot say enough about Dr Fisher. I'm actually facing another possible procedure, and he is always my first go to, and I have never been disappointed by his assessments, recommendations, and actions on my behalf, hands down. He has beyond doubt either save or extended my life on this earth. Full Stop. Thank you and bless you Dr Fisher, both for your past and continued care as well as staying in practice when you could easily have retired off into the sunset. God bless you.

Outstanding Physician
Dr. Fisher is an outstanding physician. I recently visited Dr. Fisher seeking his guidance regarding an ongoing issue I was experiencing. Dr. Fisher patiently listened to my concerns and performed a comprehensive exam including necessary bloodwork. He advised me to follow up with an appropriate specialist, and at the same time reassured me that he is available for follow up as necessary. Dr. Fisher also responds promptly with test results and to answer all questions. It is rare to encounter a physician with this level of compassion and expertise. I highly recommend Dr. Fisher!

Best Cardiologist and most caring in NYC
I don't even know where to begin. Let me start by saying that I am a lucky man because I am under Dr. Fisher's care. I wouldn't survive if it weren't for him. I went to Dr. Fisher with heartburn. He did an echocardiogram and then started the stress test. Halfway through, he stopped the test, kept all monitoring devices on, and called an ambulance. Dr. Fisher knew I already had a heart attack and needed to go to the hospital right away. He called the hospital to tell them that I was on my way. He explained the situation's urgency and asked the hospital doctors to do the angioplasty. Throughout this process, he kept in touch with the doctors in the hospital and called me the next day when I was in my hospital bed.I found Dr. Fisher to be very professional and attentive. He does an excellent job managing his schedule as well. I have never had to wait during an office visit. His Office staff are very accommodating. I don't think I can find another cardiologist who is as knowledgeable and

I brought my mother to Dr. Fisher. She was suffering from such shortness of breath she could not walk more than a few steps without needing to stop. Dr. Fisher gave her a 2 hour exam and diagnosed serious heart failure. He was also concerned about an area in her torso that did not seem right and sent her for a CT Scan. Several days later she was diagnosed with Lymphoma. Dr. Fisher delivered the diagnoses with compassion and patiently explained the conditions, answered all questions and assured her that these were treatable conditions. Dr. Fisher had her admitted into Weill Cornell Hospital's cardiac unit and treated her heart failure. When she left the hospital she had no shortness of breath and a bounce in her step. Dr. Fisher is now coordinating her Lymphoma treatment and we are hoping for similar results. It is not an exaggeration to say that Dr. Fisher saved my mother's life. I have never met a more knowledgeable, patient and detail oriented doctor. I can not recommend him enough.

Dr. Jeffrey Fisher and Office - Best Medicine Ever
It's not just that Dr. Fisher is an awesome doctor, it's that he has the most responsive and nicest staff too. Testing is thorough, referrals are to only the best doctors, and call backs are never missed (okay maybe one time in the past 15 years...seriously, his office has it going on). If you need a primary care or heart specialist, call Dr. Fisher.
