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.

He is a great doctor.

In so much pain after Endiscopy
His nurse would not let me see him before day ofEndoscopy. Had sharp pains in left chest. He is this elusive Dr you can’t see until day of procedure. I was begging, nurse said no. I was in so much pain in myPalate after procedure I couldn’t eat. Nurses told me to take pain reliever. It now is 8 days after procedure and I still have some pain in my palate. Cannot eat really hot or really cold food. There is something wrong here about not beingable to see Dr before a procedure.

Dont see this guy
Once I was able to finally get an appointment, which was made principally in order to obtain a treatment plan for my ailment, I was met with what I experienced as a distant provider who seemed interested in nothing other than asking me a series of questions in advance of getting a colonoscopy. He didn't examine me and he didn't suggest any, and I mean any, advice or guidance on treatment or medication. And, outrageously he didn't mention until the end that I would not be able to get the procedure for 4 months! This is in White Plains, NY. I went to another practitioner and the experience was completely different. He actually examined me. He asked me about my weight loss. He pointed out that I had been taking too low a dose of medication (in fact, he was shocked that no one had pointed out that the dose I was taking amounted to a placebo). He scheduled the procedure for two weeks from my visitWorld of difference.

There wasn’t a no star option so I had to choose 1 star to be allowed to continue to write this. I have no idea what kind of a physician Dr Fath is because, unfortunately, I never got to see him .I can, however, say that my messages to set up an appointment to see him were never returned.That seems to say something about the office and perhaps, by extension, the doctor. And I only say this because in order to post this review I had to verify that I was treated by the doctor. Again, while I never got to see the doctor, strictly speaking, I still feel entitled to post this review because of my interaction ( non- interaction?)with the office.

Excellent doctor as he spends enough time with you to get the correct diagnosis and follow up procedures. He’s listens well and asks the right questions. Wait time was less than 5 minutes in waiting room. He is open to your questions.
