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 office staff is incredibly helpful and nice. Unfortunately they are associated with Dr. Glassman who is rude, passive and disrespectful. I have been following physicians within Northwell for my fathers care and have never been treated the way that we did by him. I’m sure his colleagues have a better bedside manner but I would never recommend anyone to book appointments with him.
