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.

Dr. Schwarz is absolutely the best. She is so kind and attentive to patient needs. The office experience (scheduling appointments, parking) isn't the greatest, but the reason I remain at the office is because of Dr. Schwarz.

I had the same PCP for more than 20 years. He started treating me as a 14 year old. When my insurance changed, I could no longer see him. So after about 4 years in limbo, just going wherever insurance pays, I found Dr. Schwarz. From her introduction I knew I had my new PCP. She's so warm and thorough that I feel cared about as a person. And that's what matters most to me. Her and I feel like a team. And we have one goal, a healthy and long life for me. Definitely go see her!!

I had been with my previous PCP for over 25 years, so to change to a new doctor, I was very hesitant. As soon as Dr Schwarz entered the room to meet with me, all my hesitation went away. Dr Schwarz is professional beyond my expectations and listened to everything I needed to talk about. I found the doctor I want to be with for the next 25 years!! And the office staff are wonderful.

I have been seeing Dr. Schwarz for almost three years now, as I mentioned in my first review, she is so far the best PCP that I have. We’ll recommended, she genuinely care about your health and give some good advice. She does not treat you drastically she takes time to review your health and take one step at a time, in which I honestly think is the best treatment. Thank you again Dr. Schwarz, my lifetime Physician. Happy New year!!

Have been a patient of Dr Schwarz for 2 years and have never been disappointed with her bedside manner. She is extremely thorough and efficient. Dr. Schwarz takes as much time as needed to listen to all of your concerns. She is easy to talk to and is genuinely interested in what you have to say. I would definitely recommend her to everyone.
