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.

There are not enough words to praise Dr. Michael Block, he is one of a kind. He’s top in his field! He is professional, extremely knowledgeable and experienced, compassionate and gives his all. I have undergone 2 procedures with him. I knew I was in the best hands possible. He takes his time, answers all your questions, explains everything and reassures you. He is the only GYN physician I trust. Thank you so much Dr Block for being you. I may add that Maureen his nurse and all the staff have been awesome too.

A wonderful, compassionate doctor recommended by my mom years ago. Dr. Block delivered my daughter, now 22 yrs of age. I would recommend him instantaneously.

I have been a patient of Dr. Block for as long as I can remember. He was the first male gynecologist I have felt completely comfortable with. He and his staff have a wonderful bedside manner. I also see Dr. Block every 6 months as he is an advocate of women's health issues and staying on top of any potential problems that may develop. I have recommended Dr. Block to friends and family who have also become his patient and have been very satisfied.

Schedule early - there is sometimes a wait but Dr. Block is always caring and spends the time he needs with each patient. Been going for over thirty years. Wouldn't switch.
