“I chose Dr. Fischer because he appeared older and probably more experienced. I made the right choice! Additionally, the OspreyPolyClinic was very modern and the nurses were skilled as well.”

I was absolutely blown away by how great Dr. Fischer and the staff efficiently handled all my needs today. Dr. Fischer was so thorough and had such a nice bedside manner. The office was beautiful. They offer a payment deal that makes their services much more affordable for people who don’t have insurance. I’m switching my business to this office. I already called my old office and told them I’m switching. I also love the app that I can use to communicate with this office. I am just so impressed with them!

Dr Fischer has excellent bedside manner. Answered all questions, nothing was rushed. Very professional and would highly recommend him for anybody.
However his staff dropped the ball several times on medication issues. Over 2 hours was wasted on a lie that medication was approved and they did their part. My mother suffered another 24 hrs due to their negligence on a simple phone call. Not impressed with the intake personnel at the office. I will ponder if I search for a new Primary Care physician.
As I previously stated Dr Fischer was excellent, his staff left a bad taste in my mouth.
