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. Fisher did my emergent appendectomy. Later I had complications of an absess in the area where the appendix was removed. I received excellent care. About 4 months after my surgery I got a hernia and Dr Fisher repaired it. Dr Fisher has a great bed side manner

Had an inguinal hernia repair performed. Surgery was on a Thursday and pain through Saturday was extreme. But Sunday came and nearly 90% of pain was gone. Now up walking and getting back to normal 4 days after surgery. So far very impressed with Dr. Fisher and the surgical team. Next milestones will be follow up visit in another week and then see how much I am back to normal within 4 weeks.

Dr. Fisher performed two surgeries on me, including an emergency appendectomy. He's an extremely knowledgeable, skilled and caring surgeon. I highly recommend him.

Dr. Fisher saved my life! I was having problems eating due to the pouch from previous gastric bypass kinking over on itself. He diagnosed me immediately, said I needed an immediate reversal of my gastric bypass or I would be dead. I was severely malnourished. What was supposed to be a 5 day hospital stay turned into 14! He opened me, my liver had adhered to my stomach, I needed 2 blood transfusions, it was awful. But, Dr. Fisher saved my life and I'd recommend him any day of week that ends in Y!

Dr Fisher is one of the best!!! Describes everything until he's sure you understand it, and is truly compassionate and caring. Didn't go through any surgeries with him but he watched me constantly to make sure none was necessary.
