Patient Reviews
May 11, 2024
Dr. Fisher is one of the most responsive doctors I have ever had. He lists his email address so you can email any information to him, or questions and he answers in 24 hours or less. In one case I had a friend who years before had a kidney transplant. She was taking antirejection drugs that lowers your immune system to almost zero. She caught Covid and asked her doctor if she should get the infusion for anti-viral that was helping a lot of people with Covid. Her doctor asked when she had her last Covid vaccination. She had it about 2 weeks prior to her getting Covid. Her doctor told her it wouldn't really help. I'm not a doctor but knew the vaccination and the anti-viral worked differently and offered to email Dr. Fisher and did. An hour or two later he sent an email to me and said she should go in as soon as possible and get the infusion. She believes this saved her life. Her oxygen levels had gone down to 90% and needed oxygen.
