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.

Compassionate, Easy to talk to!
I have been a patient of Dr Hockfields for many years and he is the best, always has time to listen to my concerns both medical and personal! I could highly recommend him to anyone.

Dr. Hockfield has been my internist for more than 30 years. Despite his busy practice, he takes the time to listen carefully to my concerns. When I leave a phone message,he always responds. He has great compassion and wisdom, and is an excellent diagnostician. He is also wonderful at reassuring and calming me when I am nervous or worried. He was there for me throughout my bout of breast cancer 10 years ago. Of all the physicians I've ever had, he is the one I respect and like the most.

I saw Dr. Hockfield everyday when I was a patient at Abington Hospital. I liked him so much that I switched to him as my family doctor. When I saw him at his office in warrington he greeted me and made reference to my hospital stay. He may have just read my records but he made me feel like he knew who I was.

Dr. Hockfield is quite simply the best physician I have ever had! I am 81 years old now. I left the Philadelphia -Abington area 20 years ago and moved first to Florida and then to Stockholm, Sweden. I miss him very much! Many primary care physicians and even many specialists of internal medicine are much less thorough, and/or knowledgeable here than was Dr. Hockfield in my experience. I always felt comfortable and cared for at my visits with him. Dr. Hockfield, THANK YOU! God bless you, Sir!
