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.

Flakey
Cancels appointments saying he doesn’t do that surgery anymore.

Very professional and caring when he was at Methodist Hospital. Now that he is at Mt. Sini Beth Israel, Cadman Plaza Bklyn office--he is even better !!!! I wanted to tell him that i observed less strains of gray hair, but I kept that comment to myself. Dr. Paul will take his time with you. He will explain in detail any questions that you might have. I had hell finding him because i was MIA for a year. Methodist Hospital staff unfortunately will not share his new location.
