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.

These surveys are not good because the doctor is excellent but a lot of the office staff are lazy and don't get messages to the doctor... or when they do it's the wrong message and the doctor will call questioning the message and then i tell him what I called for and it just makes more work for the doctor. Also they don't put the test results in the computer so he has to look everything up while I'm there instead of being able to see it in my chart like it is supposed to be.

I went to Dr. Lichtenstein' office in hopes to find a caring physician. Unfortunately, I saw quite the opposite- while he was professional to me, he was degrading to his office staff for making mistakes and even using profanity towards them. I witnessed him also yelling at his young medical students. I will never go back as this is not a physician of character. There are compassionately physicians I rather have to handle my health care.
