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.

Patient and caring doctor who offers possible solutions based on both information/data he has gathered and his experience. Pleased with his office staff and protocols during Covid times.

Dr. Nussbaum is exceptional. I have had more doctors than you can count - for various surgeries and other issues. Many were very fine, but none better than Dr. Nussbaum. He diagnosed my psoriatic arthritis way before it was apparent as being that. He is sensitive, caring, and smart as a whip. He has the ideal personality for a doctor - gentle, kind, caring, and brilliant! Best of all, my arthritis has disappeared!

I have been a patient with Dr. Nussbaum for 27 years. He is an extraordinary doctor. He has made my live easier and my pain reduced through well informed diagnosis and other sources. I moved away from the lowcountry and I continue to see Dr. Nussbaum on my annual visits to Charleston. I have never found a more caring, intelligent and thoughtful doctor, ever, in my long life of medical care. Some others come close, but none surpass.

I would not recommend this doctor to anyone! I thought I was going to a doctor that loves to be challenged and/or thought higher then taught lessons. He asked me what was wrong I started to tell him and while in mid sentence he look over at my daughter and asked her a question, not related to my visit (3x). At the end of our worthless appt. he dismissed me based solely on a 3 month old blood work and did not even take the time out to listen or assess my situation!!!
