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.

RUDE
I promise if there was a 0 star, that's what I would've chosen. 'Dr'. Earl does not deserve a medical license. I'm not even sure how he got qualified for one, as he is completely useless and does absolutely nothing for his patients except give vague advice, dismiss their complaints, and basically tell them to go see another doctor. He's disrespectful and he is rude to women. I wish I never used his 'services' as he didn't even do anything for us but keeps harassing us about a bill about an insurance misunderstanding. Do NOT use his services because he should not be allowed to treat ANYBODY. Let alone children. He was even rude to the insurance representative that tried to resolve the issue. He's pathetic and deserves to have his practice closed. Seems like that business is already on its way out since $200 is so crucial to him. I see why his office is always empty. I should've seen that as a red flag and RAN.

Rude Doctor, Nice Receptionist
I should have listened to the other reviews and cancelled my appointment. He cut me off and did not want to hear about my eye problems. I did not get the chance to explain what has been bothering me for months. It was a negative experience. At least the receptionist was nice.

Rude and dismissive!!
Dr. Sandor was rude and dismissive. He would not listen to the patient when he was trying to explain his problem. He works at Hackensack, Hospital and he is the only doctor there that we experienced that was not wonderful. All the other doctors at the hospital were incredible but Doctor Sandor was terrible and had no bedside manner.

Total crook. Went in for a problem with eye twitch and dry eye. Submitted to insurance as routine visit. Asked for my paper work and refused until I pay $232! For nothing. Waste of time. Would not go here ever again. Unprofessional. Oh and they though I was on hold as they bad mouthed me. Great Dr just great

Doctor Sandor was unresponsive and was not willing to help a pediatric patient by seeing them in the Emergency Room. Dr. Sandor was the on-call physician when I brought my son in this past weekend. The Emergency Room called him around 9:00 AM on Sunday. He determined that it was not necessary for him to see the patient even though the emergency room staff could not help the patient. Not what I expect of a doctor associated with a best in class hospital.
