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.

He put a stint in. I felt he made a great decision to fix the problem with a stint instead of having to do open heart surgery. Very smart guy. I had 2 stints put on 6 weeks prior.

If there were a zero, that's what I would recommen
Saw him for a procedure. He never explained the risks, and I of course end up with complications that have his partner pretty concerned, but he's just 'oh well'. He was in a hurry and caused damage, was rude as all het out, very dismissive of my concerns and a know it all. Fortunately my first expedited with a cardiologist like him, but this will be my last. I'll be switching to his partner or another facility.

Tell me why you are here? Really?
My Primary Doctor set up this appointment with Dr. Schutman after my results from wearing a Holter monitor. I went expecting to get an explanation about the results. Instead, he asked why I was there & never brought the test results up once. I was so confused & concerned when I left, that I don't want to return.

Doctor in a hurry
To sum it up the doctor was in a hurry, did not allow me to ask all my questions. And did not answer my concerns. I left the appoint with a test scheduled, but with more questions than when I went in. I honestly feel like I need a do-over.
