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 was so impressed by my appointment with Dr Schiffmann. I have ongoing issues with my stomach. We sat to gather, went over my symptoms and went over the passable causes together.cant speak for highly !

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Schiffman?
Dr. Schiffman took the time to listen to my symptoms, asked a ton of questions, got a full picture of what I had been dealing with for years. After several tests, he gave me a diagnosis, a diet to follow, no meds and I have never felt better. I can't thank him enough. Sounds crazy, but it really changed my life! I'm not in discomfort anymore!
