"Very knowledgeable and friendly "

"Very encouraging, very patient and explained all I needed to know, even my most frightening concerns."

"This was my 3rd visit and just like my other 2 visits the minimal time I had to wait was an hour. I would understand if the doctor was in an emergency procedure or surgery but that is not the case. It is not right and extremely unprofessional. "

"I was very happy with my visit today with Dr. Fisch. He took his time to go over my test results and to answer my questions. He even took the time to explain things that I was not aware of from my past surgery and my limitations. "

"Dr. Fisch is an outstanding provider! I live in Delaware, and still come to see Dr. Fisch because of the exceptional care that I receive. "
  • December 19, 2023
"I have been going to Dr. Fish for 10 years for disk issues. Several years ago, after trying multiple non-surgical issues, Dr. Fish performed a laminectomy which was a huge success. He is slow to operate, which is very good in a surgeon. I highly recommend Dr. Fish. "

"Dr Fisch is always sweet and gentle. He tells it like it is, it seems, to his patients . Even got a “curative “ hug before leaving! "
  • November 15, 2023
"Dr. Fisch was thorough and professional. He gave me a clear, reassuring explanation of my condition in a very friendly manner. "
  • October 25, 2023
"Very helpful and concise. Covered the discussed issues and got some ortho related advice outside of the follow up to surgery which is always helpful. Also got to go over the X-ray since last year and the initial one way back. Some very good info on the surgery target last year. HS "

"I had a follow up visit with Dr. Fisch concerning my back pain. He didn’t tell me anything I already didn’t know. So, I didn’t really feel it was a useful visit."
  • August 16, 2023
"There is no physician who remotely compares with Dr Fisch. He is everything a patient could possibly want in a doctor. In addition to being a knowledgeable and skilled practitioner, he is a kind, generous, thoughtful and caring person. He goes out of his way to make sure his patients get the treatment they as soon as they need it. I wish I could rate him with ten stars. He is just incredible!!"

  • July 31, 2023
"Excellent visit . Dr. Fisch explained everything very clearly including my treatment options . "
  • July 13, 2023
"I went in thinking I needed back surgery. He agreed my back was bad but said that he thought my immediate pain was from bursitis. He gave me a cortisone shot and I immediately felt some relief. I can walk well enough to do short errands and visit my mom in the nursing home, which I couldn't do for the last month. I appreciate that he didn't jump at the opportunity to do surgery. I would go back to him."
  • June 19, 2023
"Excellent doctor. He answered all my questions and gave me much-needed advice and suggestions."

Data Transparency and Trust: Understanding WebMD Doctor Listings and Reviews

We know that finding the right doctor or provider is important to your health. That’s why we want to ensure you have confidence in the provider profiles and listings you see on WebMD Care. Our provider data is sourced from the physicians themselves as well as publicly available databases. Any doctor or provider who claims their profile by verifying themselves can update their information and provide additional data on their specialties, education, accepted insurances, conditions they treat, and procedures they perform.

All the physician and provider reviews on WebMD Care are provided by users just like you. Knowing these reviews provide insight into how other patients feel about a doctor, we maintain internal policies and protocols to ensure the quality and accuracy of all reviews. Providers are not able to remove or modify reviews on their own. Reviews can only be removed after an internal review by our customer service team.

We value your input and encourage you to reach out to our support team if you encounter any issues.
