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.

My son and myself were seen by Dr Prensner for many years until his move to the hospital on south front st in harrisburg . I was very disappointed by this . I have yet to find a doctor that show as much compassion as he does to his patients. My sons and my self are actually looking and hoping that he'll soon get back into family medicine.
