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.

A doctor who listens
After suddenly developing edema and gaining 15 pounds of water weight in several weeks my cardiologist put me on 5 different diuretics and my kidneys were becoming impaired. I saw Dr. Liss who listened to me and read my chart and my timeline of symptoms. He then went over the results of my recent tests, answered my questions, and listened to my thoughts about the possible cause with patience and without condescension, and came up with a plan of treatment. I am very grateful for his help and his expertise and I highly recommend him.

I have a very complex medical history, I needed a nephrologist to assess a long term use of a medication that was never monitored for 30 yrs. Dr. Liss listened to me, did some testing, and determined that as a result of never being monitored for that 30 yr. period I now have stage 3 kidney disease. He was cooperative and so far I feel as if I can trust him. I am still leary of doctors having gone through my previous experience as noted above. Time will tell.
