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.

Saved my best friend
My best friend was referred to another doctor that was taking his sweet time dealing with the fact that my friend had a major heart attack. I talked him into seeing Dr. Oschwald (my heart doctor). Within 2 weeks my friend had his first surgery to clear 3 blockages in his heart. Now 2 weeks after that he is going to have the other 2 stints put in. Dr. Oschwald saved his life.

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Oschwald?
I was a patient of Dr Oschwald for 12yr. in late 2017 I had serious heart issues and asked his nurse for an appt. she said I can get u in 6 months, I said I will be dead by then, she said well do u want to make the appt. I hung up. moral to the story is if u want good heart care, go out of town like I did. No wonder their ad in the Tribune today says accepting new patients.
