Patient Reviews
Apr 11, 2024
The reception staff are professional, kind, & outstanding. Never rude, dismissive, or seemingly in a hurry like so many other receptions are at other offices. The nurses are always great, even when very busy, they're calm & take excellent care.Dr. Schissel is without a doubt the best PCP I've had in 25 years. She knows her stuff. I've worked in healthcare for over 20yrs now & am currently a Dr. of OT. So I've nearly seen it all. Dr. Schissel is Always right on point with accurate diagnosis & treatment. By far most intelligent medical Doc I've meet, with wonderful bedside manner. That is a tough combo to find! For example I had a mix-up with a pharmacy. She spoke with me directly on the phone twice that day to help figure it all out. I can't say enough good things about Dr. Schissel and the entire care team there. Grateful I found them, through word of mouth, and switched over to them for all my health care needs. If she can't treat it, they'll refer you to the best who can.
