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.

It has taken me some months to write this review but I would advise against visiting this provider. He missed a potentially serious diagnoses for a lump on my kidney which thankfully turned out to be benign. I originally went to this doctor for a pain in my side which he correctly diagnosed as a large staghorn calcuili. He has limited practice hours and was poorly prepared for my visits. I went through two painful procedures which did not resolve the issue. I ended up going to another doc.

Dr Reed is an amazing Doctor, he was even able to formulate a plan with my nephrologists (Drs. Chin and Al'Kudsi) to help me restore my kidney function after I had the "worst case of Emphysematous Pylenephritis" he'd ever seen. I also changed my insurance after my stay in hospital to keep Dr. Reed and Dr. Al'Kudsi to United healthcare community plan. I recently had an imaging study (CT KUB no contrast) and he personally called me to schedule an appointment to discuss options. Best Urologist ever

I can’t believe that anybody would leave a one star review for this doctor. He is amazing. Explains things very clearly and they have a wonderful office staff. Easy to give him a five star review

Stay far away from this urologist. 5 months after vasectomy, still have daily pain (throbbing, tenderness). Still unable to wear boxers. Running uncomfortable. To compound this, the office used bait-and-switch tactics on billing. Before op, quoted $575 AFTER contact with my insurance company (no coverage, due to deductible). After the operation, which had zero complications, they billed me at $741. 29% higher! That was with me declining narcotics day of. Complained to billing. Nothing. Avoid.
