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.

Both my wife and I have been patients of Dr. Mark Fallen over the past 15+ years, my wife for kidney cancer and myself for metastatic prostate cancer and surgery. Found him to be an excellent surgeon, caring, very thorough and never beat around the bush when it came to test results and diagnosis, good or bad. When my cancer really began to advance he was intelligent to the point of referring me to programs that were experimental and specific to my needs. Have since undergone successful treatments for tumors & bone cancers and owe a debt of gratitude to Dr. Fallen for keeping me on the right track to successful remission.

Dr Fallen is attentive, good natured and seems thorough in his approach to diagnostics. However the staff who field patient questions by phone on behalf of this practice are the worst encountered in any medical practice-rude, uncaring, and not interested in getting information important for follow-up, including from an ER visit with clear instructions to check-in with Dr. Fallen.

year 2002 December 2, my birthday, Dr. Fallen performed surgery on my for prostate cancer. All went very well. Mark came in to check his work and I started to touch the area and he said don't touch....he was concerned about infection and later I realized that. Anyway, all turned out great. Here I am now in 2018 and have no incontinence or any other effects from the surgery, I leave a normal life, thanks Mark. I don't know were I'd be had I not had spoken to you and had you do the surgery

Dr. Fallen is extremely patronizing and arrogant. I was told at the Emergency Room in December that I have a pelvic kidney with an 8mm kidney stone. In April, another ultrasound revealed that it had grown to 10mm. Fallen only looked at the notes, but not the ultrasounds or CT scans themselves. He said that the stone is probably only 4mm and he won't have it scanned for sooner than two years. He rudely mansplained everything and wouldn't listen to me at all. I would NOT recommend him to anyone!

Horrible experience. Uncaring, unprofessional. His practice does not even take emergency calls from patients after hours, which is below standard of care/negligent for a surgical group. Switched surgeons after multiple failed surgeries and my new surgeon resolved the problem after the first procedure. Numerous other medical professionals (primary care doctors, anesthesiologists, nurses, surgeons) have expressed negative opinions of him.

I have been seeing Dr. Fallon for six years. I had stage four prostate cancer. He was recommended to me from one of his previous patients. He took my case very seriously and I am now cancer free. I highly recommend him. He is an excellent doctor.

I found Dr. Fallen remarkably uncaring and even callous about leaving me in an extraordinary amount of pain. I have rarely seen a doctor with so little empathy.

I had specifically scheduled an appointment to establish myself as a new patient months before....and provided former physicians records....documenting my history of I brought a sample ...Other urologists have diagnosed and written prescriptions within a half hour..He made me wait 3 days....with painful sleepless nights of no concern whatsoever....He didn't even respond to his own office staff 's appeals - to respond to me....
