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.

Don’t recommend.
Spoke with this doctor as he was the doctor on call about something that was worrisome to my family and I. All he did was give sarcastic comments after we stated our concerns, such as “what, do you think she’s going to bleed to death?” Very unprofessional overall.

We drove a 120 miles round trip, and were told the procedure he was scheduled for could not be done that day. So, with the time wasted, cost of gas etc., and a meal, it was a disappointing and costly day. He was rescheduled for another appointment in a month. Most of our prior experiences with the Urology Clinic, including Dr. Dressner has been more positive.

Very satisfied
I have great confidence in DR Dresner. He has done surgical procedures for me and monitors my urinary health. I have seen him for several years and am very satisfied with the care he has given. He is an excellent doctor.

Nope
If you'd like to have a doctor who won't listen to what you say and doesn't believe what you tell him, then Dresner is your man. If not then you should probably seek care from someone else. In addition Dresner's staff is incompetent. It took them three weeks to correctly order a simple test that I needed done ASAP.
