Great, knowledgeable doctor. After seeing 5 other Ear,Nose and Throat doctors I finally found Dr Fishman. I'm on the way to getting my longtime issue of sinus infections resolved. Thank God! He's the best!

My experience with this Md was very good. He stopped profuse bleeding from my nose in his office. He made sure I knew his schedule and how to get hold of him if I had continuing problems. I felt well cared for. Highly recommend if you want a knowledgeable doctor. He is a man of few words but very focused on your problem.

Very knowledgeable doctor but his bedside manner is somewhat gruff and his schedule tends to be overbooked.

Bedside manner is lacking. He is very short on words and doesn't always explain things well. Long waits, several times nearly an hour. He did sinus surgery on me, but neglected to tell me it would cost $300-400 for an in-office procedure in several follow-up appointments. Office staff confused, often didn't know what room, who was next in waiting room. Billing was horrible. Kept sending me bills, really couldn't explain the charges and why they kept changing. I think he is a competent doctor, but the whole experience left me cold and feeling like I was taken advantage of. Unless you are desperate to see a doctor, I'd go somewhere else.
