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.

Went in with signs of Low T and ED; was told by the doctor maybe my wife had gained weight so I no longer found her attractive and since I had kids and a beard, my testosterone must be fine. He dismissed my concerns and was downright insulting. Will not be returning. Read Less Submitted Apr 24, 2024

Dr. Izenstein is my PCP, and has been for many years. His dad was my dad's PCP. I admire this man's work ethic, medical knowledge and dedication to his craft and patients, second to none. I completely trust him with my life. I'm diabetic, one of his specialties, however he can always advise me on any illness or condition I experience. My only fear is that one day he will retire, and I will be forced to look very hard for a Doctor that will give me a similar level of care.
