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.

Not the best
It was my first time seeing Dr. Brodsky, and all I can say that he is not the best. You feel he wants to finish up everything and leave. He doesn’t listen to your concern and doesn’t take you suggestions into consideration. He doesn’t have the character to sit and listen and try to help you. He finds the easy route to fix the solution and have you leave. He approached me and didn’t ask for my permission to fix my mask although it was covered through my nose too. He sits on the chair and holds his shoe which is disgusting. Very unprofessional and non friendly Dr. I was in pain that i was forced to see a Dr but I wont see him and wouldn’t recommend Dr. Brodsky to anyone.

It was my first time seeing him and I don't even know if he really even looked at me. It was very awkward and It seems like he was not interested in listening to me. Maybe it's just the way that medical system is set up but He spent more time typing up things on the computer than talking to me. I want to give him the benefit of a doubt, maybe something's going on in his personal life Or he's just a stressed overworked doctor, regardless it was not a great experience and I will be choosing another primary care physician.

I've been seeing Dr Mark for about 4 most. He listens to my complaing, and ALWAYS addresses all my concerns. I absolutely trust him and Everytime I have questions I email him through the portal and he ALWAYS responses back to me through email or if I request a call he follows through calling me back with a same-day call back. I hope he stays for another 20 years!!

Saw him one time, and it will be my last time! I would avoid him at all costs. He does not listen to you, he does not care. It's as though he's just there for a paycheck. Very strange- why be a doctor if you aren't genuinely interested in helping patients? Isn't that the whole point of the job? Please do yourself a favor and see someone else!

We visited Dr. Brodsky today and he was very professional. He answered all our questions and he didn't have a fake ""I deeply care about you" smile, he was doing his job the way it should be done. I'm very satisfied and would recommend Dr. Brodsky to those people who come to the doctors to solve the issue, not to share their life drama.

He barely looked at me. Seemed like I was bothering him when I attended Urgent Care over the wkend. Left the room without explaining what was happening. Worst Dr. I have ever encountered. When I called to complain, they said unfortunately it's not the first complaint we've heard.
