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.

My wife has metastatic breast cancer. She had given up hope based on the treatment from her prior oncologist. Then God blessed us by meeting Rodrigo Erlich, M.D. He is a man of singular genius and compassion. He is thinking about my wife's case all the time. Not only can I call him anytime but he reaches out to me regarding his thoughts on my wife's treatment. This man thinks beyond the generic cookie cutter options and considers the individual's unique case. We are blessed to know such a man.

Dr. Erlich saved my moms life. My mom was diagnosed with inoperable, stage 3B, Pancreatic Cancer on April 6th 2016. After going to Johns Hopkins and being told there was nothing they could do and she had one year to live, Dr. Erlich didn't accept that as an option. He and his team applied for my mom to receive the latest treatment in immunotherapy in conjunction with chemotherapy. After 3 months of that regimen, my mom was given a repeat scan and the cancer was gone. Pancreatic Cancer was suppos

On first visit waiting almost an hour. Also he was taking cell phone calls and texting while he was with me. 2nd visit I asked the nurse to tell the DR to leave cell phone in his office. He came in the exam room and blasted me about how dare me tell him to leave his phone. I replyed I was a patient also and I was paying him to listen to my questions. I would NEVER refer him to anyone. Luckily I do not have to go back because I would not!!! I will get with my personal physician about this.
