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.

Zero stars
Everything in the comments are facts and not the good ones. Worst experience I have ever had. Go somehwere else to be listened to heard and seen. I have a condition that requires management and due to my knowledge and ways to handle it, I’m written off. No labs no tests just you’re fine stop looking for answers as if my health isn’t important and as if I wasn’t bleeding in the hospital three weeks before. Doctors like this should not be able to call themselves doctors as they have obviously not entered this profession under the oath they made

Terrible doctor. – Should have walked out.
Told Dr. two rare diseases I had been diagnosed with since my last colonoscopy with him nine years earlier. His exact words were I don’t want to talk about that ….. he said we didn’t find anything last time & I doubt we’ll find anything this time. Again, I should’ve walked out. He said you’ll get your upper and lower. He never checked me for two of my rare diseases, which requires special test. The absolute worst, most uncaring, So-called professional I ever went to. Should’ve gone to 7-Eleven and would’ve had a better experience.

Horribly unprofessional doctor. He used swear language and called me “man” myriad times, like he was trying to be cool and ‘on my level.’ It was unbelievably insulting and disrespectful, and I am livid. I am a 50-year-old woman with a medical issue that requires sensitivity and he treated me like an ignorant 14-year-old boy. I’ve never felt so humiliated by an MD.

Dismissive, does NOT listen to your concerns, talks over you and down to you. He is a bully with MD behind hid name. The practice is great but see another GI there.

Arrogant, thick headed bully who talks down to his patients and doesn't listen to any of their concerns. He is rude and disrespectful and dismisses anything that doesn't agree with him then tries to "gaslight" you when you disagree with him that it can only be X but if you're not willing to do X we can't see you only sees what's on your chart and makes a "diagnosis"from that.

I have been seeing Dr. Schore for many years. He is always willing to listens to all my concerns about my many health issues. He explains everything so I can understand and is very thorough. He also takes his time to answer my many questions.

DO NOT GO TO THIS DR!!!! I read reviews before my appt and saw things that said "run for the hills", etc. but I decided to continue with my consultation anway....BIG MISTAKE! Dr Schore would literally cut me off every single time I tried to speak, was extremely rude & arrogant....and to top it off, his office staff never returned my call after 3 messages to try to schedule the endoscopy with a different provide in the office. DO NOT EVEN BOTHER CALLING THIS OFFICE. The office staff don't even have a clue. Very sad.

Dr. Schore is a great doctor. He spends time with you and listens. He gets right to the point , sends you for the test that you need. When results come in he goes over them with you and answers any questions you may have. I trust him with the decision he makes.

I was a little apprehensive to meet with Dr. Schore after reading the reviews. So when I met him I was pleasantly surprised that he was nice. He's not over the top friendly. He's just right. He gave me a list of things to do. He said them to me politely. He answered my questions, so I could completely understand what he meant. I am so happy I didn't let those other reviews detor me from going to see him. Dr. Schore is a nice guy AND a great Dr.

I didn't need an urgent appointment, mine was routine colonoscopy. I'm not sure how some of these reviews get on here, but I was treated very nice through-out the process. If you have a problem with the Doctor you should talk to him/her instead of airing it out online. Very comfortable atmosphere and staff. The nurses and anesthesia doctor were exceptional and polite since I was nervous. I was in and out within two hours. Highly recommend Dr. Schore.

If you would like a doctor with a kind bedside manner then he is not for you. I heard him talk to a patient over the phone prior to my visit. The nurse who took my information before he came I explained it to him all wrong and I overheard the conversation. Personally that isn't professional. I did not feel confident after that and honestly go to someone who will spend time with you.

I went to see Dr Schore as a referral from my primary. He was very attentive and concerned when my results came back. He spoke to me and my wife. We both thought he was very genuine and kind. At the hospital, he stayed as long as needed to explain what was going on. I would recommend him to anyone. I'm not sure why other feel differently but we liked him. And when we called the ans service, Dr Rockoff called us back within mins. Then he called back after speaking with my primary MD. Good service

Worse bedside manner ever. Used as 2nd opinion, disregarded results of a 4 hr test cuz he said he would have never done that test & doesn't believe in it. If I could have gave him a 0 for satisfaction I would have. Entire staff including doctor himself are horrible and rude. RUN, do not walk away from this entire practice.

Reading file for first 10 minutes of the appointment, then after reading it he started discussing a colonoscopy (I was there for an endoscopy). Long story short I found a new dr which is/was best thing I did for myself. Staff is rude and can't be bothered to answer a phone call - they only answer to make appointments so if your dare to go back there (highly recommend elsewhere) but if you do just be cautiou, between prescribing medicine that later created more problems which landed me at ER 2x
