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.

Very helpful doctor and staff, took time with my mother and her problems with diabetes. It was nice to actually see a doctor and not a clinic nurse.

The wait times are longer than indicated, they take people in bulk groups. So regardless of if you're scheduled for 9 or 9:30, you will be seen at the same time. What is most frustrating though is the absolute refusal to share normal test results over the phone. Seems to be a cash grab because they insist you come back in to their office (we ALL HAVE JOBS) to discuss what, in my experience, have been negative AKA normal test results. Spectacularly frustrating as they don't seem to realize that by not sharing the information and insisting that you come in, it cultivates the idea that something might be wrong with me as the patient health-wise. Simple fix, honestly, my significant other's doctor shares test results, only requiring a follow-up if something should show up. Get with the times, what a joke.

In the past, Dr. Fritz has encouraged me to do annual bloodwork while I was ILL and haven't fasted. As a result, my lab work always came back off the charts; I know this now. I also did an allergy panel and he didn't explain any of it. He did however, give me a very expensive Rx! Dr. Fritz was only good for his ease of subscribing Rxs. The ladies in his office were also very kind and helpful. Otherwise, if you're actually concerned about an illness, go somewhere else.
