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.

Excellent diagnostician!
Very patient and thorough doctor. Professional and clean environment. Highly recommend this practice

Dr. Schwartz's office has been amazing during COVID. I was able to continue follow ups with televisit until I was comfortable coming in. The entire staff is warm and welcoming. Dr. Schwartz is very knowledgeable and I know I am getting the best care at each visit. Highly recommend.

I spent a considerable amount of time (perhaps 30 min.) with Dr. Schwartz's assistant who reviewed my records and medical history. She also lectured me on ways to lower one's A1C, information I was already well aware of, having a diabetic son. I then saw Dr. Schwartz, who had reviewed his assistant's notes. leaving very little for us to discuss. Time with him was about 5 minutes. The office charged Medicare for a blood test that I did not have (good idea to look over your Medicare reports). When I called to inform them of the error, the assistant called me back and told me it was an unintentional mistake since the blood test is routine for most patients.

Started seeing Dr Schwartz in 2009, he looked at the tests results from a previous uninformed Endocrinologist and said right away I see something wrong. Seeing Dr Schwartz for me has been life changing. He diagnosed my condition, rather than medication he coached me on how to eat and lose weight. He takes the time with you to explain what is happening to you and what you can do to help yourself along with his help. I have recommended him to others. Love him, he is TOP NOTCH.

I brought a family member to Dr. Schwartz for a medical problem. I was extremely impressed. I could tell he had trained his medical staff thoroughly when his physician's assistant took a detailed medical history. Dr. Schwartz's kind manner is calming. Most importantly, he puts the patient in control by explaining his diagnosis and the options for treatment.

I don't usually leave reviews but I had to this time. Dr. Schwartz was great! Very knowledgeable, answered all of my questions and addressed all of the concerns I brought up. His staff was extremely friendly and very professional. I had to call a couple of times due to an insurance problem on my part and they were very patient and helpful.

Not a good choice for thyroid patients. They refused to treat with T3 medication (T4 made me very ill) because it is more difficult to monitor, even though this has been successful for some patients with my condition. His office staff is extremely rude and difficult when trying to transfer your medical records. If you refuse to treat a patient with valid treatment options, [for your convenience] you should at least let them easily transfer their records.
