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.

Time to retire
Met Dr and he reviewed my tests and informed me I had a heart attack. Followed his direction and had a further test (took 10 days to schedule). Nope, heart was fine according to the coronary imaging I had done. I had an appointment the day after the scan and when I arrived at his office the appointment had been cancelled. Staff in office are great but Dr is curt.

Dr was VERY rude to my father at his appointment. His grandson took him and sat with him and could not believe the way Dr. Greenspan was talking to him. TERRIBLE bedside manner. Heart Dr with no heart! Time to retire. I’m just upset my father had to experience this kind of disrespect!!

He would do well to read a patient’s chart before coming in the room. Most time spent on computer during appointment, providing short somewhat terse answers to questions. Did not like his comment, “Do not touch me,” when accidentally bumping his arm during a question. Somewhat rude, unnecessary.
