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.

Dr. Eichner showed compassion, helped me to understand what was happening to me. Got me into a specialist . If it wasn’t for him they wouldn’t have found my cancer.

He the worst doctor I've ever been to. He couldn't care Les what's wrong with you. He's in the room long enough to tell you hello see you in 3 months. You can't tell him what's wrong with you because he doesn't want to hear it. It's ridiculous and I'm not lying he is in that room for no longer than 3 minutes

I went in for an establishing visit, felt great on the prescriptions I was on, just needed refills. He took me off my meds including bp diuretic, said I just needed exercise and to lose weight (which is true), that he didn't believe in using diuretics and that they lead to Type 2 diabetes. Over three weeks later I went back for bloodwork results, which were in normal range. However, bp was 150/100 and had added 15 lb. Still no diuretic, ended up going to urgent care with bp 175/100. Bad!

This office is absolutely awful. I would not recommend it to anyone. I went for a simple Physical. My appointment was scheduled at 2:00pm and I arrived 20 minutes early to fill out new patient paperwork. I didn't get back to a room until 2:30pm. I was at this office for a total of an hour and a half for a physical that took maybe five minutes. Aside from the awful wait time, the quality of customer service is not good. I am not sure that the woman working the desk knew how to smile! DISSAPOINTED

Worst doctor I've seen. He wouldn't even talk to me about my medication when I was in tears and scared for my own health. He was to worried about his own issues to even talk to me. I had to talk through the nurse who pleaded with him to help me. He practically ran from the room so he wouldn't have to explain himself. What a coward and uncaring human. And I'm being respectful and modest in this review. I can't believe the crap this guy tried to pull on me, handing me a bundle of photocopied crap

The time I spent waiting both in the lobby and the patient room is ridiculous and unacceptable. I originally decided to see Dr. Eichner for my generalized anxiety because he was in walking distance. I felt that he refused to listen to my concerns as he repeatedly tried to take me off my medicine. I would never recommend him to anyone.

I went to Dr Eichner wanting an American physician. I have been with him for about two years. I have a medical background. But every time I see him I have felt cut short with medical concerns left unmentioned and like he doesn't have enough respect to listen. And recently I've been having a problem that really has me worried; without any discussion he went the most conservative route in testing and in no hurry at all. I don't feel too confident.
