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.

As a patient of Dr. Steven Horowitz for many years, I always found him to be a very caring doctor who took the time to listen to my concerns and address them. After seeking medical services from other doctors who seemed to want to give me a "quick fix" of medication without finding the underlying problems, I appreciated how thorough Dr. Horowitz was with each visit. He always showed genuine concern for his patients and never rushed through the appointment! I would highly recommend him to anyone!

Saw my son in urgent care and told him to man up when he shared parents concerns about his condition. Refused antibiotics when requested and a few days later my son was in the ER very ill short of breath and now getting those antibiotics via IV that Dr. Horowitz refused to give. The worst part is, because he did not listen to his patient, my son now has to repeat the quarter at college because he is too ill to return!!
