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.

Never felt in better hands with Dr. Waltzer. He is thorough and cautious with my skin. I would highly recommend if you are searching for a true professional. Every staff member I have come in contact with is more than professional and friendly. I have skin issues and feel as though he is taking corrective actions not only in current issues but also preventative actions.

I made my appointment several months in advance. I arrived 25 minutes early because, as a new patient, I expected I would have to fill out paperwork and I did. I then waited for 30 minutes from my appointment times asothers came in, were seen, and they left. Finally, after 30 minutes of waiting with no update or concern for me, I went to the recetionist and told her I was leaving.

We had family ongoing challenges with skin cancer and Dr. Waltzer was outstanding. After we moved we returned to him repeatedly for years - no matter the 2 hour drive - and particularly after exposure to other specialists outside the area. He is truly a remarkable physician.
