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.

It’s been over 20 years, He keeps us healthy!!
He is patient and thorough. Always asks questions and is extremely polite. His immediate staff had been with him and are very welcoming and talented in their own right.

Dr. Schwartz is great
Dr. Schwartz has been my GP for around 10 years, and from my first visit with him, it’s been as if he’s a caring family member (with a seasoned MD). He is extremely knowledgeable, treats patients with respect, and gives them his full attention. He will put your mind at ease for things you don’t have to worry about, yet won’t hesitate to inform when something needs improvement, without being alarmist or judgmental. Great doctor, great guy.

Dr.Schwartz became my primary care Doctor about 8 years ago after Dr. Peter Halper went. Into concierge practice. He is excellent and in addition to being current brings an invaluable body of experience to his consultation and treatment. He is also deeply humane. His office and assistants are highly professional and organized. I feel fortunate that at 90 I am in his care and I trust him.

Fan of Dr Schwartz
Dr Schwartz is the only doctor I’ve kept in NYC since moving to NJ over 12 years ago. He is thorough, explains everything, asks a lot of questions. Quickly returns calls regarding my bloodwork. I trust him and highly recommend.
