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.

Very thorough and spends the additional 5 minutes with you. He even updates your chart himself. And he digs down to find the root cause if you see ill. So happy he is my PCP

Dr. Shapiro is a fabulous doctor. He is thorough and thoughtful. His manner is quiet and serious. But do not judge him for that. He really cares and he is very knowledgable. I have been his patient for over 10 years.

Not a nice person. Does not know how to talk to his patients. Shows no care. Cold and distant. he may know medicine but his personality leaves much to be desired. He gave me a mis-diagnosis and never apologized. Steer clear!
