Dr. Fishbein is a true professional. Competent, thorough, and always responsive whether it was to take a 2 am call and send a prescription to an all night pharmacy to address a kidney stone attack, or to answer questions about Covid-19 protocols, he has been them for me and my family for the past 25+ years. Thank you Doctor!

Dr. Fishbein has been our primary care physician over 25 years.
Dr. FISHEIN provides 100% quality and consistent care. He is extremely knowledgeable, and an excellent, outstanding physician, He is thorough, caring, kind, with a great sense of humor, extremely thorough in his assessment, diagnoses, and referrals, with quick, timely follow-up. Dr Fishein and his staff treat you like family, and are kind, compassionate, and so respectful to all patients!
He has two outstanding physician assistants in Allison and Tamara, and two outstanding front and back office managers in Rob and Brenda. The entire staff is outstanding! I wish I could name all of them.
Dr Fishbein and staff are truly the most dedicated team of knowledgeable and outstanding group of consummate professionals!

I have been seeing Dr. Fishbein for many years now for mainly my annual physical. He *always* has time for me, never rushes and explains everything thoroughly. Also answers all of my questions and is very responsive on the online portal. We need more doctors like Dr. Fish! : )

I had a FaceTime appointment with Dr. Fishbein, he was on time with the call. He listened to what I had to say, and was sympathetic to my problem, he called in a prescription to my pharmacy.
I would and have recommended him to family and friends.
