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.

Amazing care for over 3 years!
I've received care from Dr. Waldman and his wonderful team for years and it has been an absolute pleasure. The love and care from the team is superb, and I have seen a vast improvement in my symptoms since beginning my allergy treatment. I truly recommend them for anything regarding the sinus and allergies.

Dr Waldman is operating off outdated medical (allergist) practices. He uses a scratch test without documenting test and control protocols for allergies that other modern practices are using in the area. He uses a generic one size fits all serum for people at 4 different strengths that are not custom titrated to the levels needed by each individual, so you may develop adverse effects, such as papules (rash), etc. They're using needles that cause bruising, even these can be given sublingual. He is also very old (mysoginistic/patriarchal), cuts you off while attempting to answer questions, disheveled clothing, his training is outdated, his staff are quite miserable, and his office is dingy. He does not follow up on serious allergic reactions that occur after you leave the practice and return home. His follow up occurs 6mos after the initial consultation, that's irresponsible, and puts it on the staff to implement titration changes without discussing it with the patient first, leaving it u

Since my referral to Dr. Waldman by my ENT doctor 15 years ago I have been thoroughly evaluated, prescribed allergy shots and other specific medications and periodic followup exams to assess progress. The problems I had for many years are now minimal and some are non-existent. He and his staff are always helpful and current.

I have never had a more thorough Doctor go through my complete medical history when becoming a patient more then 5 yrs ago. I suffered from horrible allergies for years and once I met with Dr. Waldman and was tested for allergies. I found out I was allergic to more things then I ever could have imagined and he started me right away on a treatment plan and I have not had any issues with allergies since. I wish I could give more then 5 stars because the Dr. along with his Amazing family and Staff have made me feel more welcome then any other Dr.'s office has in the past. I truly can't thank them enough for there incredible help.

I’ve been a patient of Dr. Waldman for over 10 years for my allergies and asthma. He is professional, highly knowledgeable, and personable. I never feel rushed when I have questions and he truly goes above and beyond to help his patients. He is very detail oriented, such as writing prescriptions for generic medications, rather than brand name, to save his patients money. His front desk staff is friendly and helpful, which unfortunately, can be hard to come by in medical offices. I highly recommend Dr. Waldman’s services and his friendly and supportive staff.

Booked a one x allergy test. They only would except my insurance for 1 more month. They said I could have results of this one time test sent to my primary. They were aware of my heart issues when I booked, and first thing I told PA was that I had 3 previous open-heart surgeries. She waited until I was checking out to tell me they couldn't proceed without an OK from my cardiologist and said the test would take 4 visits not one. Never even saw doc just PA . They only care about money not my time.

I have been seeing Dr. Waldman for approximately 11 or 12 years. He is extremely thorough and very knowledgeable. He is very compassionate and very personable. My grandson saw several doctors when he was under 3 and no one could diagnose his problem until I suggested to my daughter she bring him to Dr. Waldman. He found the problem immediately. His staff is friendly and just as awesome.

Dr. Waldman is very knowledgeable and has been able to answer all my asthma/allergy questions. The staff is wonderful. I get allergy shots once a week and can get in and out quickly. On average I only wait about 5 minutes for my shot once I have signed in. Great Doctor/Patient experience

I was referred to Dr. Waldman and was quite impressed...great caring staff, very nice and very professional at the same time. Doctor was right on with his sharp right to the point important questions... great Mayo training and background to partially thank for that. I was really impressed by his mannerism and oh so professional direct questions that actually surprised me why no one had ever asked me those questions before and yet he was really listening when I spoke.
