I recommend U of R to everyone. In the area in which I reside there are few choices for medical care and both are not good. I wish I was closer to Rochester, so I could have all providers from U of R.

The provider did a great job explaining the options for future care and listened carefully to my thoughts and concerns. And, he went above and beyond the purpose of the visit by dealing effectively with an ancillary issue.

Dr. Schneider has been very easy going throughout this process. Although the end result was not exactly as I had hoped, he discussed options for further treatment and was open to my ideas on how to proceed. In the end, he asked me to keep in touch with any issues that may arise as I continued to assess at home.

Dr. Schneider was great. I had a note card prepared with questions and concerns. I didn't have to refer to it because of his explanations. He hit all the points and concern before I could ask the questions. He put me at ease from the start.

Provider was very personable and had a good "bedside manner." He did not provide an explanation of who the woman was who had asked me the questions and was actually doing the laryngoscopy. (I looked her up, and she is a speech & language pathology fellow.) [...]

1.4

Poor listening skills. Follows same treatment path for all patients. Disregard for scientific data and imaging analysis. Too quick to judge / provide an answer before fully listening to patient or reading comments in Mychart, completely misses the point of conversation or it's intent. Could use remediation training in listening skills and imaging analysis. Presents as a lazy doctor.
