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.

The Wiz got me through my cancer and I loved him. I saw him when I lived in Northbrook, IL. He instilled confidence and was determined that I would get well.

I HAD A VERY RARE CANCER AND I NEEDED AN ONCOLOGIST AND AFTER A FRIEND RECOMMENDED DR. WIZ I DECIDED TO SEE HIM. HE IS AWESOME!!!! HE REALLY TAKES A LOT OF TIME TO EXPLAIN ALL OF HIS FINDINGS AND YOUR CONDITION MAKING SURE YOU UNDERSTAND. HIS FOLLOW UP WAS EXCELLENT AND SO THOROUGH. HE WILL ALWAYS BE THERE FOR YOU AND MAKE SURE YOU ARE WELL CARED FOR AND ALL TEST RESULTS ARE ACCURATE AND BACK IN A TIMELY FASHION. HE IS A VERY KIND, COMPASSIONATE, AND A WELL STUDIED DOCTOR. 10 STARS!!! FOR DR.W

the least compassionate person I have ever met and practices in the field of oncology when all the patient needs is a hand to hold - not a good match. Zero personal skills.Dismissive to the elderly Thinks he knows it all- does not call to follow up on his dying patients. Just another doctor practicing in Florida to take advantage of the elderly.
