Patient Reviews
Jan 23, 2022
I went to Dr. Sussman many years ago as a last resort. I received a diagnosis from another Dr. which had me for months , running around to several specialists, all feeding in to each other. Months later, out of desperation I went to see Dr. Sussman, he listened to my litany of complaints, read the log I was keeping and then examined me. He asked the nurse to leave the room and then politely and professionally told me that I am healthy, all in my head, and instructed me to go home and watch dancing with the stars or whatever the big show was about 13 years ago. Within a few weeks all the “symptoms” subsided…he reached in and pulled me out of the rabbit hole, saved my life and I am grateful to this day. Highly recommended!

What’s a board certification and why is it important that my provider has one?

A board certification represents a provider’s dedication to ongoing training in one or more specialties, including the completion of intensive exams. While not all specialties have board certifications, if your provider does have one they’ve taken the extra step to master their specialty and to keep up with the latest advancements in their field.
