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.

Fantastic!
Dr. Adelman is thorough, caring and answers any questions I might have. He totally rocks!

Dr. Adelman and his team have been my primary health care and internal med provider for over 20 years. Not only does he and his team provide excellent health care, but also a quality patient experience. Listening and understanding the “whole patient” are critical to quality health care. The Richard Adelman team exemplifies what it means to “get it right”. ‘Truly Blessed to have them.

There is no better doctor that I have ever encountered. Extreme experience, understanding, and logical approach to problems. You feel completely at ease and confident in the direction. This is the only review I have ever posted, but I felt I had to because he deserves it.

I have been a patient of Dr. Adelman for over 30 years. His staff has always finds a way to get me in when needed. He always reviews my past visits and fully explains his findings. He works well with my health plan and goes the extra mile to find the most cost effective solutions compatible with my insurance plan. He is not quick to prescribe drugs when exercise will solve the problem.

Waited for hours to see doctor. No nurse was there and this doctor literally expected a terminally ill patient to go out of state to get refills for meds. Unbelievable, irresponsible and completely inept. Wouldn't listen, didn't read or review past medical records and nothing positive about any of this office visit. Wouldn't even send an enemy to this doctor.
