Very good experience. Dr Eichman was very through with my father and did a very good job of explaining his thoughts and what he wanted my dad to do. The staff was very friendly as well. The Edgewater office is a little odd in that it shares a waiting room with 3 other offices but it is roomy and well lit.

how we have to take care of ourselves and much more he is HUMAN, he
cares for his patients.

July 27, 2023Patrick C.Verified patient
Dr Eichman was quite approachable, easy to speak with and took the time to understand my situation. Instead of simply prescribing a medicine or scheduling a test, he asked pointed questions to illicit the responses necessary for him to determine a proper course of action. Then he proceeded to provide advice on how to deal with specific issues which was genuinely helpful.
