Verified patient
Absolutely awful. I have seen other doctors in this practice and have never had any issues, but this guy was so rude with terrible bedside manner. Wouldn’t let me explain my concerns and very condescending. I have decided to switch practices based on the fact that I had to wait an hour to have such a terrible experience. Stay away.
Quick and friendly, I would recommend
Verified patient
I really liked Dr. Blizter. He took the time to explain the results of the test and helped me make a plan for treatment. Highly recommended.
Verified patient
Dr. Blitzer was great; he spent a good amount of time with me listening to my input, thoroughly examining, and then fully explaining the issues and the options. He recommended the least invasive approach to start with. I felt like he took his time with me and I didn't feel rushed out at all, which I've found isn't often the case with doctors.
