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.

Dr Fischer is very knowledgeable and approachable. He set my mind at ease and actually showed me using a scan what he shared. Very articulate and straight forward. And he's got a great sense of humor.

Dr. Fischer and the nurse were better than any doctors I've seen. When they listen, they actually are listening and so easy to talk to. And they don't keep you waiting, which was amazing and so hard to find! Professional, of course, but had a way of making you feel comfortable. Superb to say the least.

Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Fischer?
Dr. Fisher was very understanding and patient. He took the time to explain the different surgical options and his ultimate recommendation (laproscopic). He walked me through how it worked and what to expect; I never felt rushed during consultation. Same story before/after surgery.
His staff were very helpful and accommodating, even when I had to reschedule my surgery multiple times!
I also chose him for his years of experience and that he trains other surgeons.
