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.

I never got to meet Dr Gelman so this is not an indictment of his abilities which are unknown to me. I showed up at 6:30am on time for my 7:30 appointment. The courteous staff at the front of the hospital informed me I wasn’t on “the list” and instructed me to wait in the lobby while they contacted the doctors office. They called 4 times and the doctor was nowhere to be found. His office said they cancelled my appointment by accident and were trying to figure out why. Meanwhile I waited more than 90 minutes in the lobby and his office didn’t even have the respect for its patients to come and provide an explanation, or to admit me to their office so we could figure out the problem. After more than an hour and a half I left. I would NEVER trust an office this unprofessional to perform a delicate procedure in which I am required to be put under. Furthermore, they informed me only 3 days prior that I needed a negative Covid test, so I paid extra to rush the result. AVOID AT ALL COST
