He's arrogant. He spent first five minutes admiring his screen saver to his assistant. Eventually, he told me he couldn't help and that I need to see a hip doctor. Why did the front desk schedule me an appt with a non hip dr. When I told staff that I will see anyone, I meant any hip specialist. Sure I complained about my back, but did not like his overall demeanor.

Dr. Fisch was great. I didn’t like his diagnosis but certainly not his fault. 🙁

Dr. Fisch quickly diagnosed my condition and prescribed medication to address it in a noninvasive manner. Put my mind at ease. I am a returning patient (family spinal problems), and highly recommend him.
