Thank you for helping me see the world clearly.
The services were okay but I had to wait too long to be seen. The appointment was at 1:5 and I didn’t leave until 2:45. Too long.
The very best doctor in the DMV!
Outstanding
Always pleasant; sometimes more hurried than other appointments, understandably. Provides details of test outcomes but you have to ask for more depth if it’s wanted.
I couldn’t be more pleased with Dr. Schwartz. He is extremely competent and professional.
Very skilled and really talented at explaining issues. Doctor Schwartz makes you feel safe in his care.
Very honest and reasonable evaluation this morning. I’m very impressed!
Exceptional service and patient care!
Great! Answered all my questions. Gentle manners.
