My 10 year daughter was referred to Dr Fishman by an orthopaedic consultant. After several trips to the hospital she was understandably nervous, but Dr Fishman was kind and humorous, and made her feel at ease.
Was very happy with my consultation and felt listened too. Did not feel rushed at all and my letter came through very quickly.
After his explanations of the medical condition ,he asked if there were any questions, which is very rare these days after doctors visits
It was my first consultation with Dr Fishman and he was pleasant and professional. We discussed my Chronic pain in detail and he arranged for various tests. I felt he listened to me and he clearly wishes to help find answers for me.
Brilliant service, I have been explained about my gout issues .
My son had been having issues with his joints and Dr.Fishman gave very sound advice and was very thorough in his process.
