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.

Very satisfied with the visit. Dr and staff were very polite and attentive. Dr Pinsky was easy to talk to and explained everything in depth so we could understand what was going on.

On Oct. 29, 2018 I was passing a kidney stone and didn't have a urologist. I found a cancellation appointment with Dr. Pinsky the same day. He sent me for an x ray prior to the appointment. The x ray did not show a kidney stone. He could see my pain was real. He sent me back to get a CT scan, stat. I had the scan and went home because he said he would call. He called me personally acknowledging there was a stone and ordered medication to help me pass it. Spends time and very thorough.

Wonderful doctor! I came in through the emergency room, and Dr. Pinsky correctly identified my problem, removed the kidney stone and inserted a stent, and answered all of my questions. He was very patient in allowing me the time that I needed to review all of my tests, consider his recommendations, and process all of my options. He was professional, knowledgeable, and kind. I highly recommend Dr. Pinsky!
