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.

First impressions
Doctor Fish really made me feel comfortable in my first two visits by talking to me about my situation. Not talking above my head but just how things are at this period of time and how he thought we should proceed with new updated testing. Seems to be very knowledgeable, understanding, and very friendly. Will be back soon!

Basic follow-up
Doing a follow-up from a hospital visit about six months back. Dr. Fish and his staff were prompt, thorough and answered all of my questions without missing a beat. Ran a few tests that should be back shortly, he left me in a better position for my upcoming visit to a nephrologist. Getting doctors and different offices to work in conjunction with one another can be problematic. This doesn’t seem to be the case with this team, and they’ve worked well with my other doctors.

Our experience with the medical profession has been less than steller until we started coming to Urology and Associates. My husband is now seeing Dr. Fish, who is always 'forward' thinking, with my husband's best interest in mind.

Great Dr. Great Surgeon
Dr Fish has great bedside manner. Is an expert in the new Robotic Surgery Device at Boone Hospital. Treats patients with great care and gives all options for treatment that is successful. He cured me of a tumor. He'll cure you too. Or at least try his best.

Outstanding Healthcare!
Dr. Fish and his team at Urology Associates are outstanding! They continue to provide one of the BEST clinical health care experiences and care that I have ever had! I’ve been a patient with them since February, 2017 when I first saw Dr. Dresner. I have NEVER had to wait upon arriving for an appointment and everyone in the clinic is genuinely eager to help. From the nurse Candy who took my vitals to Tammy, Dr. Fish’s secretary and of course, Dr. Fish….just a great team! I am so grateful to be a patient of their! “Bravo Zulu” Urology Associates!Mike Maurizi, MD“Wizzard”CAPT(retired), MC, (FMF), USN(R)R

I would wholeheartedly endorse Dr. Fish.
Dr Fish and his staff members were very timely, professional and competent. My Doctor referred me to Urology Associates based on potential issues that arose on scans I received. The initial appointment with Dr Fish was a consultation. and within two working days Dr Fish performed an in house procedure. The entire experience was positive and fortunately the outcome was favorable.I would highly recommend Dr Fish as he is quite professional and qualified while easy to communicate with and understand.
