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.

Dr Marcus, Deanna, Deb, and Melissa are amazing for any Obstetrics or Gynecology needs...but Dr Marcus and his team are an absolute MUST if you have female issues or are going through infertility treatments. I admit I am a hot mess when it comes to female issues and I am going through IVF and add on top of that the IVF clinic I go to is out of state, and I always feel bad but never once has Dr Marcus or his team been rude, they have been very compassionate....which is exactly what any woman needs especially going through IVF. When I started my IVF journey I wanted to make sure I found the right OBGYN for me. Very happy to say I found that Dr and his support team

I've been seeing Dr. Marcus for over a year now and recently I've been not too impressed with the level of care I've received. He forgets things about me, such as the fact that he performed a D&C on me months before, and doesn't seem like he really cares about me. His bedside manner has never been there but I always feel rushed now when I'm in the room with him. Needless to say at 20 weeks pregnant I'm looking for another doctor to accommodate the level of care I'd like to receive.

I was very dissapointed the last two visits. Dr. Marcus seemed extremely rushed, did not prescribe me anything for my irregular periods, pretty much said all my labs came back normal and here I am on my period for almost a month.... will NOT be seeing him again.

I have been a patient of Doctor Marcus for 8 years and he is just the best. I have been having medical issues and he is the only one who found the cause. He cares about his patients.

I found Dr. Marcus through a co worker and switched over to him at 34 weeks pregnant. His office got me in for an appointment the next day. The staff are amazing and they made me feel right at home. Dr. Marcus is very nice and very informative. I delivered a healthy baby boy and Dr. Marcus was excellent. He visited me at the hospital and made sure that I was comfortable. The whole staff at Community Hospital was awesome and I felt right at home.
