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.

Very long long time to get an appointment
Corporate practice. Runs like a factory. Very difficult to get a new patient appointment. Virtually impossible to schedule a procedure with spend a vast amount of time on the telephone and emailing

Worst support staff
Impossible to get results for tests. I’ve been calling the office. Left 3 messages to request the results of a test and still didn’t receive any call back. Tried making a follow up appointment with the doctor because I am experiencing bad stomach problems and I was told the fastest appointment is in 3 months from today. It is such a pity because the doctor is excellent and is most likely losing patients because of his staff

Dr. Felder is great and amazing!! He is our doctor for the last many years but sorry, his office is a disaster...I am schedule for a endoscopy this coming Monday. No one can tell us for the last week if the anesthesiologist is accepting my insurance. We went to the office and met with one of the girls for 1 hour and called the office several times over the last week. As of now assistants are so unresponsive. Very irritating and inconsiderate!! We just canceled my appointment for Monday.

It is impossible to get through to talk yo someone at the office! I have been calling for 3 days trying to reschedule my appointment! They don’t puck up and ask you to leave a message and Never call you back. Today I was not even able to leave a message cause the mailbox was full! This is the worst experience I had so far with a medical office. I have not even seen the doctor yet as i am a new patient but this already tells me that i should probably look for a different doctor. Not a good experience!

I love Dr. Felder's friendly-make you feel comfortable approach. His explanation are thorough and he actually listens, not talk over what I saying. He gives options that I can pick and choose, as opposed to this is what I am telling you -- take it or leave it. I highly recommend Dr. Felder!

Doctor felder is great, he cares for his patients! He looses 2 stars because of his staff. Unfurtunately couldn't say same about his office team. Bad service, faces all the time, it took a week of me calling after to get them to sent out my prescription to pharmacy and i still cant get them to email me my result. {Dora mistakenly sent the study of 2018 instead of 2020 and didnt sent my medicine out when she said she was. Had to call her twice after i went to pharmacy 2 times to be told nothing was called in from dr. Felder} I'm still waiting for my results and having to call everyday (as if it was an easy task with no one answering the phones. (They're rude and act like they're doing you a favor) if it wasnt for how good and knowledgeable dr. Felder is I wouldnt return. What a shame he personally deserves 5 stars. But can left the rest of the bad experience unsaid

He has a great bedside manner but everything seems rushed. He doesn't take the time to thoroughly investigate the cause of your symptoms. Would not recommend him if you're looking for a thorough workup.

My experience had been horrifying ! I have been trying to talk to a human for two days to try to see if Dr Felder’s way of practicing fits my life .No human person is available to talk and for that matter even to make an appointment. There is no call back as promised no matter what time of the day you call you get a voicemail it’s the most exasperating ,and horrifying displayOf 21st century in personal Communication. I would love to get someone’s attention because I understand that he may be a fair physician but I’ll never know I suppose .

Dr. Felder is great, can't be better!! But sorry, his office is a disaster...assistants are very rude and 1 hour waiting for the nurse after you see the doctor is just unnacceptable. Very irritating and unconsiderate.

I had a problem with my voice that everyone told me was acid reflux. He performed an endoscopy and had to argue with the labs to show them that they made a mistake in their testing to show me I had a fungal infection that was easily cured, with no lifetime change in eating habits required. He restored my voice, and I am very grateful. He is smart and thorough and respectful. I regard him very highly.
