5 out of 5 stars

I work in healthcare, and I actually work for hartford healthcare as well as another major hospital system. I work with a lot of different providers, but I can tell you that Dr. Schwartz and his nurse and entire medical team are like nothing I've experienced. He was absolutely amazing! He was professional yet kind, answered all of my questions thoroughly and didn't make me feel rushed at all. He was reassuring and supportive. His nurse , office staff and medical assistant matched his energy and professionalism along with kindness and a very humanistic approach. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you

This was a new surgeon which I never met. He was very nice to the point - gave me homework to get my MRI Disc from Sunrise Hospital in Vegas. Very smart man and highly recommended.
