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.

Dr. Fisher is not Mr Personality. If you need warm and fuzzy, this isn't the doc for you. That being said, he is a highly-skilled, experienced surgeon, answers every question with clarity and completely, and never makes me feel as if he has to race to his next patient.I strongly recommend him. Going for left knee replacement soon. Right knee replacement two years ago. Healed quickly and he was very responsive to questions and issues.

Thank goodness this man was not my doctor or I would never return. He returned an after hours call as the doctor on call. He was the most condescending and rude human, let alone doctor, I have ever had the misfortune to speak with. It was clear I was interrupting his weekend with my unimportant issue. I feel sorry for the other professionals in this practice (who have always been very compassionate) that this man represents them when they are not available.
