Dr. Abramson Reviews
Based on: 1 review -Add review
I got an appointment when I needed one.
They kept things moving and on time during my visit.
I received a correct diagnosis and up-to-date treatment.
I was given specific advice on lifestyle changes I can make to improve my health.
The provider really listened, gave me the time I needed, and put me at ease.
We discussed treatment options and choices I have.
The provider addressed traditional and alternative medicine treatment options in an open-minded way.

This practice has a reputation for seeing as many patients as they can in a short period of time. They are also the only... practice of their kind in town and do not allow patients to switch doctors after being assigned to someone. Does that tell you something? My experience with Dr. Abramson was nothing but all around horrible. He never treated my concerns and did not seem interested in me as a patient. Every time I saw him I brought up several questions/concerns. He would act like he was going to come back with samples or a prescription, bolt out of the room to never return and would send a nurse in his place. NOT HELPFUL. After waiting for several weeks for an appointment, there is nothing worse than being ignored when you finally get there.He may have a reputation for being a fine surgeon but that doesn't help those who come to him with needs other than surgery. more details
