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.

He will not listen!!! Runs test after test not related to any issues your may be having. Dismissive. Uncaring. Never returns call or gives results of tests before ordering more.

Dr. Szych is a careless, negligent doctor who does not care enough about his patients to provide correct aftercare instructions or fully explain procedures that can be life-altering. His negligence landed my husband in the hospital and he is still in pain as a result. Shame on this doctor. Find a doctor who actually cares about their patients.

Has a bad bedside manner. Always makes me feel like I’m dying and never has any real answers. He doesn't like questions bc he very short or doesn’t answer at all. Current looking to replace him ASAP.

Made me feel very uncomfortable due to his rudeness. Very dismissive. He performed a colonoscopy and GI check. While laying on the table waiting for the procedures to begin a consent form for stretching my esophagus was given to me to sign.. this was never discussed or even briefly mentioned by him during my visit. When he entered the treatment room I tried to speak to him he didn't acknowledge me at all and just gave them the signal to put the mouth block into my mouth and put me to sleep. My bowel activity is not the same as before. I have no warning of a pending bowel movement, if a bathroom is not close I am in trouble.....let me be very clear here; this, was not the case before the procedure. This is a little embarrassing to say but I feel it is important, after a bowel movement and a thorough wiping; a little while later, I have to wipe again...not so before he performed the colonoscopy. Hope this information helps.
