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.

Thank you

Great doctor. People often mention that he's behind on his appointments, but they never complain about their own appointments running longer than the usual 10 minutes most doctors allocate. He's the first doctor to perform all the necessary tests to rule out any disease.

He treated me and I’m a lot healthier.
He is concern for my health and He helped me get through my anemia. For a reason God puts ppl in our path and I was blessed to have met him.Thank Jesus I was his patient but sadly he no longer at the office. May God bless Him where ever he’s at.Thank you Dr. Mitter for your kind words.

If you’d like to be in the waiting room for 2-4 hours, he’s the doctor to go to. Dr. Mitter likes to talk about himself for long periods of time, causing patient schedules to run far behind. If you ask question about your condition, he looks at you like you’re the stupidest person in the world. It’s disgusting. I’ve talked with many of his patients and we all have similar experiences. We know more about his life than we do about our cancer! A truly arrogant doctor.

He is very rude and arrogant. He sat in a chair and texted during my entire appointment while the nurse asked me all the questions. I asked him to repeat himself at the very end and he repeated himself once he was already walking away down the hall. Which i still did not hear what he said. Appointments run 3+ hours behind. Very frustrating

I had to see this guy after my surgery due to severe dehydration. He fixed that, but then convinced me to go to a shady hospital bc he thought I was anorexic (obv I am not). I was losing weight for unknown reasons, I still do not know why. Anyway, the other MD observing me gave me an appetite stimulant, and I ate fine. Mitter wanted them to put a tube in my stomach, but the other MD wouldn't let that happen, thank god. I was released & never saw this guy again. I am now well btw!
