Dr. Paula Schwartz, MD

Dr. Schwartz is a dismissive and rude doctor and she has poor clinical skills. My mother-in-law was a patient of hers for years and her disease condition changed. While she is in decline for certain, Dr Schwartz suggested taking her off all meds and told my wife she had weeks to a month to live in January. We put her into hospice assuming Dr Schwartz was right. It is now mid May and gratefully she is still with us . Not only is she still with us, but the hospice nurse just released my mother-in-law from hospice . Dr Schwartz’s poor assessment and recommendation has subjected our family a great deal of unnecessary sadness and pressure.

Dr cancelled my wife’s visit on the day of because she didn’t have enough info in her chart. Per staff dr was ‘angry’ with them for allowing this pt to be scheduled. I’m glad my wife avoided dealing with this poor excuse for a dr. A true blessing in disguise.

My mother has been a patient of Dr. P Schwartz since the mid 1990's. She battled Had breast cancer twice. She is still with us. My father unfortunately was diagnosed with stage 4 inoperable kidney cancer with which she applied all her knowledge and resources to sustain his life and keep him as comfortable as she could. He passed a year and a half (?) later. Yes I trust this beautiful compassionate person with my families lives. The reason you may have to wait a little longer for your appointments is because she gives the upmost care to each and everyone if her patience. You just need to have patience too. Its not your GPs office.

I have been a patient of Dr. Paula Schwartz for well over fifteen years. She has a straight forward and honest manner yet warm and reassuring. I have always been treated with respect and confident in her ability to diagnose and treat my condition. I would and have recommended Dr. Schwartz to friends and acquaintances who were as pleased with her demeanor and treatment as am I. Dr. Paula Schwartz is a true professional with the right mix of compassion, competence and commitment.

Suspicious SPEP result. Referred by my GP. Dr. Schwartz saw me the next day to go over things with me and ordered follow up testing. The NP explained the the results of the new tests over the phone ( which was a relief) and I have a follow up scheduled in a couple of weeks.

Dr. Schwarz's office is incapable of refunding an unused co-payment in the amount of $50 to me since January 14th, more than 6 weeks ago. When I call I get told someone will call me back but no one ever does. The excuses are just that. What does it take to refund $50 to a patient who was never seen by the doctor. I paid the co-pay up front. After sitting for ore than an hour and a half in the waiting room, Dr. Schwarz came out with an attitude toward me. She then called my referring Dr.

refused to provide information on my condition

A very busy provider with limited time to see patients. Refused to discuss diagnosis with patient or family. Refused to provide resources on diagnosis as well as support group. Poor bedside manner and attitude. Refused to refer to a specialist who may have been able to provide a cure for the disease. Patient died under her care.

Dr. Schwartz is an excellent listener, and takes time to explain and answer questions. She is compassionate and caring, and very easy to talk to.
