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.

Kidney Stones still after $40,000
Dr. Benz not only had me 40,000 in debt but I also still had kidney stones. He even punched in through my back which he told me would be the best way to get the stones. This was AFTER 2 of the shockwave lithotripsy treatments. After having a kidney stone attack where I ended up in the ER. I went to another doctor at UHC who in ONE procedure removed almost all fragments of my stones and I have had no trouble in a few years now. That Doctor also told me that Dr. Benz had left my kidney scarred and damaged by all those procedures within a year and half period. Dr. Benz is good at raising revenues for hospitals. If that is what you are looking for, he's your guy.

I love him! Even though I had kidney stones in the past, this time I was wrong. Dr Benz found the problem & not only led me in the right direction to go, but was helpful in setting me up with the appropriate Dr. who could help me. He was very caring & very thorough. He really cares about the patient no matter who you are. He even called me himself when he needed to. You don't find Dr.'s doing that anymore! He will always be my urologist!
