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.

He is very much a doctor-nice but all business regarding health issues Which is exactly what you want

Dr. Hirsch has been my doctor since 2012. I've had him through surgeries and now a pregnancy. He's calm, caring, and funny. He doesn't rush you out of appointments and takes time to listen and answer all questions before the end of the your appointment. He's also extremely knowledgeable and take the time to explain anything you want to know. I consider myself lucky finding him and plan to stick with him until he is no longer practicing!

He is extremely knowledgable and listens very intently. He is soft spoken. He has four children of his own, and is very intune with pregnancies. He delivered both of my children (one of which had complications). I wouldnt have any other doctor. I was sure that if anything went wrong during the birthing process he would know what to do. Also, he is not a person who will immediately medicate. He will let natural courses be taken before mediating. best doctor ever.

Felt like It was an inconvenience to see us. And like he didn't want to do anything. We asked him if we could get a simple ultrasound which we've gotten told is no problem before and he replied with we don't do that here. He was just very rude and we didn't even understand him when he told us the appointment was over.
