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.

Terrible experience
I visited Dr. Weisman and was treated as if I do not know anything about my own body. He was rude, condescending and dismissive. I left the office in tears. I was shocked that a Doctor would ever speak to a human being the way he spoke to me.

I would and I have recommend him to family and friends. Dr. Weisman and I met during my visit to the ER for sepsis. 2 years, 4 hospital stays and 3 surgeries later...one of which was an emergency, I credit him for saving my life. His talent, skill, caution and patience make me forever grateful!

Dr Weisman is very rude and abrupt. He is deplorable and leaves oneself worse in spirit than the stage 4 rectal cancer conditions. I would never recommend anyone to make an appointment with Dr Weisman!

The first appointment was made for me was for an onocologist. then I had an appointment with other specialists. The questions they ask was nothing like the questions he asked. Dr. Weisman ask the direct questions to get right to the problem. After the questioning, I think he tak and meditate on it. Then call you back in to give you the solutions to the problems. Then he'll give you the plan. Xoxo

A wonderful doctor. He's one of the few GI doctor who actually gave me a realistic option of staying fully awake during the procedure. He clearly explained what I would be feeling (typical tummy cramps, etc.) and that most of his patient opted for this rather than being put under. I've had 2 colonoscopy procedures with him so far, and as much as such a procedure can be "comfortable", they were that both times. Highly recommended.

Dr. Weisman is in a class all by himself when it comes to colonoscopy. He is by far the most talented doctor I have ever had when it comes to giving a colonoscopy. I would recommend Dr. Weisman to anyone that needs to have a colonoscopy
