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.

Hilarious and Knowledgeable
He's helped my grandma, my mom, and me with herniated disc issues. He and Dr. Mina (pain management) have helped ease a decent bit of the neck pain I've experienced. Never had a long wait, never felt disrespected, never had any issues with him or his staff.

Doc cancels then charges a no show fee!
Dr. Gurwitz has cancelled many times then the office charges a no show fee. Also, Dr. Gurwitz won’t perform surgery on you if you are overweight yet healthy. He prejudged by your looks. Stay clear from this office.

My wait time was minimal. His demeanor and knowledge matched his reputation as the best back doctor in Texas. I am on the road to recovery and feel extremely comfortable and assured that I am being provided the best care with him and his staff. Highly recommended!

Dr. Gurwitz was very good. He doesn't tell you you will be without pain but should be a improvement. For me it was very good some days no pain at all. Most times just a little discomfort. Thanks Dr. Gurwitz.

After a friend's referral, I am very happy and satisfied with Dr. Gurwitz. I highly recommend him. He listened, addressed the issue and 'fixed' it. His staff is friendly and professional and I appreciate the short time in the waiting room.
