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. Robert Schiffer is a really nice guy.. Too bad his staff is so bad. The office forgot to send a bill to my insurance and tried to send it to Anthem a year and a half later. The bill was rejected by my insurance because it was not billed in timely manner. So they sent me to collections. It was their fault. Not mine. But yet they still decided to send me to collections. They refuse to take my calls and hang up on me. I've been forced to file against them with the State Medical Board.
