The most condescending and least compassionate doctor I have ever met and I work in the medical field. Unwilling to think outside of his VERY small box. My daughter was there for an immune deficiency and had been suffering for three weeks with severe mouth ulcers and he never even looked in her mouth. I mentioned scientific journal articles from PubMed and he dismissed them as “something I read on the internet”. Truly the worst. I still can’t believe it happened. Don’t ever step foot in his office unless you want to pay a $9... read more
This doctor's mishaps, lack of follow through, willful ignorance, and refusal to document my medical problems accurately has just about destroyed my life. I lost the ability to work and function. He was the only doctor who really saw the problem but kept expecting someone else to deal with it while he left me high and dry. Don't be fooled by the kindly demeanor, he is cold and cares nothing about his patients. He even put his nurse up to bullying me on the phone. The way I was treated was just horrible. They whitewash themse... read more
Very misinformed doctor and unwilling to learn. I keep finding out more all the time about how wrong he was in his medical knowledge. It is unbelievable how wrong he was, and how much confidence he had in saying what he was wrong about. I put way too much confidence in his opinion.
Stay away from this doctor, especially if you are seeking help with MCAS. He tested me for it on my first visit, but he did not understand how to run the tests correctly or how to interpret the results. His mistake derailed my medical care for 3 years. Meanwhile my attacks worsened to the point of interfering with my ability to work, and I repeatedly asked for help, but he dismissed my symptoms and did nothing. I have shown him numerous research papers and publications and patient stories to illustrate diagnostic standards f... read more
This doctor is a good example of how the road to you-know-where is paved with good intentions. He seems like he means well, though I'm not really sure of that, but the results of what he does or advises or what he put in my records continue to cause me problems further down the road. I suggest you don't follow his advice without thinking twice about it or maybe getting a second opinion. I followed his advice against my better judgement and really regret it. In the beginning this practice seemed exceptional. But they have all... read more
I was referred to Dr. Firschein because he has a reputation for being able to figure out hard to diagnose problems. I don't know why because he has not really helped me with anything. My allergies are totally uncontrolled and tells me he does not have any other testing or treatments to offer. I am very reactive to mold, pollen, and a number of foods and spices, but he says I am not allergic. The allergy testing I had previously with a different doctor had different results. Dr. Firschein is kind and empathetic but very frust... read more
Worst allergist on the planet. Dr Firschein had me pay a boatload of money out of pocket directly to him for a non effective non FDA approved treatment,when my insurance company was willing to pay for the cure the whole time. Dr Firschein is the very definition of a total hack
Dr. Firschein is the best doctor I have ever met. He is caring, intelligent, and more observant than most doctors. He really takes the time to listen and answer your questions. He identified a problem I have that no one else picked up on, and it has changed my life. He is a godsend. I feel very blessed to have him as my doctor.
Well, where do I begin. I was bitten by a tick that possibly infected me where I can't eat red meat. It has taken 4 weeks to set up an appointment. I called the business office to see if I would be able to pay my Co-Pay ($50.00) two days after the appointment. I called 5 days before this appointment to see if they would work with me. Was told "absolutely NOT" if you cant pay when you come. we cant see you!!!! Corporation over patient care.
