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.

I've had several surgeries and many procedures over my lifetime and never experienced such severe pain I as when Dr. Gary Fischer administered propofol in my vein for a heart procedure just 4 days ago. When he injected the anesthesia into my arm, the pain was almost as bad as when I went through childbirth! It was horrible. I have since googled the subject online and found out I wasn't the only one to go through this. Google "propofol" before you have anything done. Check into it on Wikipedia.

All he cares about is his protocol. Doesn't care that the drugs he insisted on using were detrimental to my memory, eyesight, and allergies. He refused to use Presedex that I was successfully put into a deep sleep before. He also refused to do a spinal block as soon as I said I had spinal stenosis. I had to agree to his protocol or I couldn't have surgery.In the operating room he mocked and made fun of me. He said twice, in a laughing tone "Tell me when the Propofol puts you to sleep "
