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.

Not thorough, doesn't listen
I had a problem that was treated with minor surgery 20 years ago, and was told it could recur. The symptoms returned, so I was referred to Dr. Hellerstein. He did not do the test to evaluate the cause, only prescribed medication to treat the symptom. I now have another UTI, but will not go back to him due to his incompetence.

I was a new arrival in Florida and in need of medical assistance. I was referred to Dr Hellerstein. My experience was extremely positive in a stressful situation. Dr Hellerstein is extremely knowledgeable in his specialty. He is very comprehensive and direct. He uses a variety of current technologies. His office and medical staff also provided a great customer experience. They are professional, efficient, considerate, and friendly. I do not hesitate to provide a 5 star review.

Dr. did not want to review the CD of my prior history. Any issues that I had were met with you are 63 years old it’s normal, Although I had her changes Within the last year. No tests were done. I was left with the feeling that he did not want to be bothered.

Patient for 4 years. I called today for a reoccurring condition that needs meds. Told that next appointment in over a month. I said I need to see either today o tomorrow - in pain. Front desk said if it's an emergency - go to the ER, otherwise, I'll have to wait. Not the first time having to deal with the most unprofessional staff. Now I have to get a new urologist. Wonderful! DO NOT USE.

Please DO NOT go to this Dr. My family member was in the hospital at Good Samaritan and the minute he walked in the room, he began to use foul language and threw things around in the room. I was so alarmed that I asked the nurse to step out of the room before he performed the procedure (inserting catheter). I told the nurse that I was extremely uneasy with his behavior and mental state. I specifically told her that I was afraid that he would hurt my family member when performing the procedure

Dr H office is really good at looking out for you. They were at least 1 step ahead of what I needed to get ready for the visit where I was sent from the emergency department (Good Samaritan). I was in the ED and then went home and called them. I had to get a referral from my Primary Doctor, which was a pain, but had to be done. but once I had that, I saw him. He agreed with using ice and more rest. The swelling eventually went down. And I am going to take it easy. no cancer! Thanks

He's not warm and fuzzy if that's the type of dr you like. He is to the point and focused on your treatment. I was admitted to hospital for impacted kidney stone that required a stent pre stone surgery. I had no issues with either surgery. I would definitely recommend Dr Hellerstein.
