I just didn’t like her behavior when she first met me.
Not at all what I expected to experience with the first time neurologist
More than 1 year agoInitials hidden
I had to drive 45 minutes to see the Dr and the nurse came in before and I told her why I was there. The doctor was not able to help me out with what I needed. I would double check with the office before making that
Long drive.

Dr. Olga Fishman and all the staff there are incredibly helpful and professional. We were taken care of in such an efficient manner and also had all our questions answered completely. Thank you so much!
January 15, 2023Elliot G.Verified patient
Never ever again! She was rude, cocky, unprofessional and had horrible bedside manner. Kept cutting me off and would not listen to what I had to say. No compassion at all. Rushed me through my appt. as if I was just a number to her. I waited so long to try and get some answers and was in tears when I got back to my car. Needless to say I cancelled my follow-up with her and scheduled my tests with another doctor. He was thorough and spent 45 minutes with me. WOuld never recommend her!
April 6, 2021Renee B.Verified patient
Found her behavior a little condescending. Felt belittled. Recommended a medicine that conflicted with my other medicines. Appreciated her timeliness but did not feel any empathy. She did not seem to be all around knowledgeable. Though for other conditions she might be wonderful. You will have to decide on your own.

I'm so happy that I saw Dr. Fishman. She listened to my concerns and symptoms. She followed her hunch that my first MRI didn't disclose everything I was suffering from and took things a step further. It's a relief to know what is going on with my body.
July 9, 2020Dawn P.Verified patient
Efficient and honest.
June 4, 2020Stephanie K.Verified patient
She LISTENED and asked questions that were relevant.
Ordered tests & will go from there. Wished I didn't have to wait 3 months for the next appointment.

Dr Fishman was very down to earth, no nonsense approach. She provided good information and was very reassuring in her manner.
October 10, 2018David G.Verified patient
Dr. Fishman was professional and knowledgeable. While this was my first visit with her, I immediately felt comfortable since she appeared to genuinely open to actively listen to my concerns. I received more guidance and encouragement in this initial visit than I have had in multiple visits with other physicians. Overall, my experience seeing Dr. Fishman was very positive.

More than 1 year agoBarbara B.Verified patient
I was worried about having some mild memory issues and Dr. Fishnan reduced my anxiety. She felt the cause for my concern was too much multitasking.
February 8, 2018Rosemary W.Verified patient
Doctor was thorough and well spoken. It is very difficult to contact crystal run healthcare by phone - it's awful trying to get through to the office!!! It's easier calling a cable provider... shame on crystal run. Not a reflection on dr fishman, who is great
January 3, 2018Jeanne T.Verified patient
I really appreciate the professionalism and honest feel of comfort experienced. Her reviews were right on spot and initially I recommend her highly
From the start.
September 22, 2017Margaret V.Verified patient
I thought Dr. Fishman was very nice and very patient while listening to the details of my complex situation. I also found her to be very knowledgeable about complex migraines which is my area of concern. I would recommend her without hesitance.
