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.

had aquablatyion proedure
The early morning procedure has been problematic 2 months afterward with periodic bleeding, urge incontenance, and worse pee frequency than before the procedure! Dr. Worisheck visited me after coming out of anestesia, said all went well, I was still foggy, assumed we would speak later. I was catherized, bleeding and sore which was more than I expected after a minimally invasive, non surgical procedure. After very long and uncomfortable 24 hours I expected the Dr would visit with me to explain what to expect in the coming days. But he never came, although he was in the hospital all day until 2:00 when he called the nurse (who was filling in from the heart hosiptal and said she knew nothing about aquablattion) to release me. I'm an 80 year old guy after an anestesia procedure, catherized, bleeding with a 100 questions! The guy never shows! Was never available to speak with in the weeks that followed, though I called several times. I'm seeking another Dr. DR. WORISHECK IS TO BE AVOIDED

I was just cleared yesterday of bladder cancer ( I still have follow up treatments). I started going to Dr. Worischeck over a year ago with bladder problems that turned out to be cancer . I had prostate cancer 21 years ago , so was very familiar with cancer and wanted the best Doctor available. During this treatment period Dr. Worischeck was kind , listened to me , and always made me feel important . He is never in a hurry and takes time to explain everything carefully. My daughter Julia is a Dr. in Houston and he took the time to talk with her and explain everything about my procedures. His office staff has all been very nice and friendly. His Medical assistant, Ashley always took time during the treatments to make me feel comfortable and explained what the treatments were doing. She made you feel like she was a friend. Would I recommend Dr. Worischeck ? Yes I would and I am so fortunate that my past retired Urologist Dr. Larry Bans referred me to Dr. Worischeck.

We have no idea how we would rate Dr. Worischeck because there has been no response from his office. They have not answered the phone nor have they responded to voicemails or a web-based appointment request. We find this terribly unprofessional. We will search for another urologist.

I had seen a different urologist who wasn’t very helpful so I was recommended here. I dropped off my paperwork and the receptionist wrote my number down on a sticky note and told me I would get a call back for an appointment. After not hearing anything for 2 weeks, I called and left a message asking to schedule an appointment. After another week and a half, I still had not received a call back so I called again and left a message. Finally I called one more time and a real person picked up, only to tell me I’d get a call back. So after 3.5 weeks total, I get a call back and the woman tells me that they are going to turn me away because of their shortage of urologist. I’ve had this UTI for over 3.5 weeks and I’m being turned away for help, when I am a paying health care patient. If I could rate them 0 star, I would. If I had known they were going to turn me away for help, I would’ve seen someone else earlier and gotten the proper help I need. I am in massive amounts of pain and this is t

HORRIBLE! Warning, warning! In October 2018 Dr. Worischeck performed a lithotripsy on my large kidney stone. It didn't work! At my expense, Dr. Worischeck performed a second lithotripsy in December 2018. Hours after surgery I was rushed to the hospital by ambulance. Due to Dr. Worischeck's work, I had internal bleeding. I had a hole in my kidney! I was in the hospital for four days and required TWO BLOOD TRANSFUSIONS! I am a very healthy and active individual, but I have never been so sick

I had kidney stones several years ago and he did a lithotripsy. I barely left the clinic from the procedure and the pain medicine stopped working and I literally felt like something had gone wrong and I was going to die. I had had 2 of the procedure done in times past so I knew I was in trouble. I ended up in the emergency room that night because pain med that he prescribed didn't even touch what I was feeling. They did CT Scan and saw I had a hematoma on the entire outside of my kidney. RUN!

After reading the reviews I thought I'd have no concerns or issues with this office and Doctor. That could be further from the truth. Post surgery I had pain and need to have a follow up procedure done and every place they recommend to me called me back and told me they don't do that at their office. After talking to 4 different places and 3 months later we found a place that worked. I had to schedule and reschedule 4 different times. I just wanted to be treated like a person.

Disappointed patient in Mesa – Feb 14, 2018
×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Worischeck?
I've known Dr. Worischeck for over 20 years now. He is a wonderful doctor and the best in his field. His office practices are frustrating to say the least. To schedule an appointment you have to leave a message and maybe you get a call back but usually not. You have to demand to see the doctor or they will schedule you with the physician assistant without telling you. You only find out when you show up for the appointment and surprise, your seeing Christine! So much more but no more space.

Dr Worischeck is an incredible surgeon, doctor and person. He is upbeat and optimistic. He puts you at ease before surgery and does an amazing job with answering questions. I have had surgery with dr Worischeck for kidney stones on 4 occasions and never had a single issue. His staff is just as incredible and deserve a ton of credit.
