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.

Health care doesn't get any better!
Unfortunately, I've had some serious medical problems throughout my entire life. Fortunately, I found Dr. Sinsheimer during a critical time. She and her staff epitomize excellence and warmth. She's extremely knowledgeable (so is her PA Claire) & explains everything thoroughly. The key word here is "CARE". That's what every single staff person gives to the patients at this office and they do so with kindness. I am never rushed and all questions are answered to my satisfaction. Everything from the first "hello" to all after care is done with complete efficiency! I'm just sorry that I took so long to acknowledge an praise Dr. Sinsheimer and her staff. So, Dr. Sinsheimer, Claire, Emily, Lester, thank you all so much for all your devotion to your patients and their health care. I'm very grateful to have you in my life taking such great care of me. Sincerely, Sue Smith

I was fortunate to be told about Dr. Sinsheimer. My first visit I met her PA who spent the time listening and also explained my health condition. I saw Dr. Sinsheimer, who came in afterwards and I have been seeing her since my thyroid was removed due to papillary cancer. She understands symptoms, she explains things thoroughly and she is willing to work with you to help improve your health. Her physician assistant, Claire Bareiss is just as thorough and knowledgeable. All I can say is I am grateful to have them both. There are a lot of doctors out there that see you and then rush you back out the door and these two are the opposite. They will spend time to thoroughly and sufficiently care for your health.

Poor bedside manner. Condescending and judgemental. As a nurse myself (though her as a patient) I was astounded by her attitude. Never would I recommend.

There are other good doctors. The staff is horrible. They send my credit card through twice for over $200 and it tooks weeks of phonecalls more than a dozen calls to get it back. The staff is pompous and arrogant.
