Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep the reviews trustworthy, honest & fair.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

Waited over an hour than while I sat there he tried to get into the link and only then started to review the history they had me fill out weeks in advance( I had been told by the medical assistant that he had reviewed it before he came in and that’s what was keeping him). He interrupted my recounting my history with a phone call that lasted awhile and when I read his notes I found that it was incorrect which showed to me that he wasn’t really paying attention. He had me do a test was unable to give proper instructions due to her lack of knowledge of English.

He is the BEST pulmonary doctor. I was coughing for a long time and I was lucky to see Dr. N. Schachter. After 10 day treatment I am cough free and I feel very well. He is a very knowledgeable doctor, explaining everything and answering all your questions. I highly recommend him and I call him the MIRACLE doctor. Emilia S.
