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.

I had a nerve test done due to neck, shoulder, elbow, and wrist pain from a car accident. He was very thorough. I didn’t have to wait long, and he was quick with the test. Got my results right away, and I enjoyed talking with him.

My visit was horrible with him. I would never go back to him or recommend him to anyone. His service and manners is very Disrespectful. He really didn’t want to see me. Asking me why it took me so long to come back to see him. He doesn’t know my pain he need to listen more and less talking badgering the patient. Told me I can see someone. I was in there 3minutes top. DO NOT GO TO HIM PEOPLE. HORRIBLE SERVICE!!

Dr. Savitz took great care of me when I experienced displaced ribs in my upper right side. He quickly worked me in to see him even though he had a full patient schedule the day of my appointment. He was kind and gentle because I was in tremendous pain. With his help and a prescription for PT I began to feel better quickly. Dr Savitz is a very knowledgeable physician and I was helped by his expertise with my condition.
