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.

Knowledgeable, personable, caring, and never rushes you. Highly recommend.

Dr. Weitz is great
I was lucky enough to get Dr. Weitz at the ER during an emergency procedure and been under his capable care for nearly 15 years. Confidence and trust with a great sense of humor!

This man is a dullard intellectually so I can only hope his important skills are honed. I flipped him off and the staff, who he shouted at as "people" apparently saw what I did, as they asked me why I flipped him off and seconded what I thought. He kept me waiting too long, and pushed me to make an important decision that was ill-advised.

Although he had a good bedside manner and seems to be a nice man, and I'm sure any doctor can make a mistake in a diagnosis. That being said I would get a second opinion, If the report had not been reviewed by another doctor my husband might have had an issue before he got the surgery he needed.

Dr. Weitz inserted a stent after I was admitted to hospital in Schenectady suffering a myocardial infarction. I've said I would recommend him to friends and family but the truth is that living in the UK this is unlikely. This was a caring doctor with a good bedside manner and aftercare. Any grading of performance (which I am asked for below) is inaccurate based on geographical limitations.
