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.

Dr Snyder has been a Godsend to me. It’s the first time I have been out of pain in my neck for 30 years.

Appointment at New Office
Just saw Dr. Snyder at his new headache clinic in Illinois. I have been taking the meds that he prescribed for my migraines for a week. Already my headaches have gone from consistently 2 per week to 0!!! I’m really so happy that I have found Dr. Snyder!!!

Horrific Experience
Please find a neurologist that actually cares and takes your symptoms seriously. Find a neurologist that provides several options to care and values you as a patient. Dr. Snyder is thee ABSOLUTE WORST. Also, make sure to check your explanation of benefits (EOB) to make sure they billed your insurance for the right procedure. He does not take challange very well.

Totally Unprofessional Neurologist
Dr. Synder is responsible for his staff. His staff is also a reflection of him. They are absolutely unprofessional in the way they speak to patients. It also takes an awfully long time to book an appointment. Dr. Snyder showed up late and strolled in with a horrible and nasty attitude. If you want good bedside manners, he is not the one to treat you.

I would NOT recommend
Find a neurologist that actually cares. Dr. Snyder makes you feel like you do not matter. It appears as though he does not want to even be there. He has such a horrible attitude. It's really unfortunate. He didn't even receive the proper records before making his diagnosis. It's his way or the highway. But it's my health. He just doesn't.

Horrible Staff !
My 19 year old granddaughter has severe migraines. We tried to make an appointment with him in November. They had none available, but put us on a waitlist, they called in January to make an appointment. The appointment was to be today February 20th at 3pm. She goes to school in Cape, so she had to take off classes for the day to attend the appointment. At 940 this morning (The day of the appointment) we get a phone call from his office saying they had to reschedule because he was out of town. This is unacceptable. The person who called was very rude, and not very understanding that appointments needed to be made when she can take off school for the day. But the woman was very nice to tell me that he was going to be leaving the practice to start a migraine practice in the next few months, if we wanted to wait. Seriously?!? Honestly, I would not take my worst enemy to this doctor. His staff is rude, and if he allows that, that says a lot about him as well.

Dr Synder is an excellent doctor and I can’t believe all the bad reviews. He listens to me, doesn’t push medicine or anything else on me. He always takes time with me and always listens to what I have to say. I would definitely recommend him to anyone. If he seems harsh it’s because people aren’t listening to him and have their own opinions about what they think is wrong with them. I’ve had a number of neurologists and he is far the best. Making sure my new insurance has him on the plan.

So Glad I found Dr. Snyder!
Dr. Snyder has been an answer to my prayers. I've known something was wrong for over two years, but none of my doctors (cancer drs & a GP) had any experience with neurologists that they would recommend. Finally, my nephew-in-law (a DO) mentioned that he knew Dr Snyder & thought he would by a good Dr to see. He was very right! I feel like I'm finally in good & capable hands!
