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.

Awesome Doctor!
Dr.Harris was nothing but a wonderful and nice doctor to me.I was hospitalized in January 2012 and I am from Louisiana.He made me laugh and made me feel welcomed because he went to school in Louisiana.Dr.Harris made my hospital stay very welcoming.I can't say anything at all bad about him.He genuinely cared about my well being.I went into a thyroid storm and I was put in a drug induced coma.I don't remember anything but waking up and I had no clue where I was.I just want to thank Dr.Harris he and all the doctors that saved my life at Geisinger Wyoming Valley.I had my thyroid removed May 2012 and I am still going.I moved back to Louisiana at the end of October 2012.If it wasn't for Dr.Harris and all the other doctors I wouldn't even be here today to tell my story that I am a living miracle.

I was already diagnosed with Hashimotos Hypothyroidism. He spent very little time with me and didn’t want to hear anything I had to say. He told me I was fat and needed a nutritionist. Finally, after I literally thought I was dying I went to my family physician to find out my numbers were off the charts. He was surprised I was able to get out of bed. He put me back on Synthroid, I gradually felt better and lost all the weight gained. I would never suggest anyone trust him. He’s arrogant and rude

I took our daughter here to have multiple thyroid tests performed and to have a follow up ANA test. She already has hypothyroidism but had been complaining of extreme fatigue and joint pain for several months. I chose Dr. Harris due to his positive reviews, but left his office extremely disappointed. He is extremely condescending and cares little to hear of anything the patient has to say. I would NEVER recommend him to anyone who truly values his or her health. I truly feel sorry for his staff.
