I would like to give Dr. Fisher more than five stars. She is thorough, tops in her field and kind. She is focused on me, giving me the option to choose which treatment is right for me. A great physician!!

I was admitted to the hospital with kidney stones and was visited by dr.fischer. I had no previous experiences with her so I decided to ask her a few questions regarding my diagnosis and the procedure they wanted to perform. She never entered the room and during the 2 minute conversation she suddenly turned around and left without answering my questions. The medical procedure was done the next day by another Doctor who had no problem entering my room to stand by my bedside and answer ALL my questions.

I was referred for a condition. She said she had never heard of any such thing. A med student had to look it up online. Upon follow up in a couple of months, she still hadn’t updated her knowledge. Other problems: rude, dismissive, does not answer questions or counsel. Please read discharge notes as it lists visit details never delivered.

I would recommend Dr Fischer to my family and friends. She’s performed two surgeries on me and explained everything to me beforehand.

Do not see her. I had 2 surgeries. My first one was a mesh sling and it eroded through my vaginal wall before my 1 year. She said she had to remove it and put in another. I was always in pain and she just said everything is fine even though I told her about my burning and each year she said I was fine. I thought I better get another. She promised this time you will be better. Finally after crying and much pain and almost 6 years since my first surgery she said I needed a 3rd surgery . She hurt me during the exam (Caused blee... read more

What a heartless doctor. My aged mother went under her care as she was suffering UTIs and was in her late 70s. My mom had been prescribed a daily antibiotic for UTIs by someone in her past. When the pharmacy told us it was dangerous, we consulted with Fischer and she said "I didn't prescribe it!". But it was listed under my mom's prescriptions and Fischer's office knew about it! So why didn't she address it?? Then my mother had kidney stones. My mom went into surgery to remove them and went into severe shock from an infectio... read more

She was so helpful, told me about my options, let me make my own decisions. I also appreciated her kindness during a tough moment.

Worst doctor in the world. Only interested in making money and dashing out the door in less then 5 minutes while your talking. I recommend no one waste there time here and as for the hospital she is a bad representation to your health system. Awful human being.

Dr. Fischer is a good surgeon, she did my Mom's bladder cancer surgery and everything went very well. Lately she lacks empathy and her communication skills are very poor. She brought a person (possibly a fellow) in the exam room with my Mom recently, never introduced her and allowed her to start the procedure which she did very painfully. When she told them how much it hurt Dr. Fischer didn't even apologize and since this procedure my Mom has had nothing but problems! We will never be returning.
