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.

Exceptional rheumatologist
Dr. Schwartz is quiet and might be mistaken for aloof. He’s not. He listens and orders all the right tests. I’d describe him as a caring doctor, meticulous and highly knowledgeable.

After years of arthritic pain and trying heat and antiinflammatory pills and lotions with no success, I was looking forward to my my appointment for other pain relief options. He gave no advice about treatment and summarily dismissed me. It was a waste of time.

I have been a patient of Dr. Schwartz for about 25 years. If it was not for his clinical expertise, I would not feel as healthy as I do at age 73. He is always available in a crises and my visits with him are never rushed. He is totally dedicated toward working toward optimum health and he explores and discusses every option of treatment with you. He is an exceptionally kind and compassionate doctor.

Dr Schwartz was so kind with my father who was in agony. He diagnosed what others unfortunately missed. Not because they were not bright, but because my father had something unusual and atypical. He is a quiet doctor who is not outgoing but smart and kind!!!! Please do not mis understand a reserved persona as not caring!!! I am grateful to him and his staff for all they did !!! Thanks again!
