Patient Comments

I felt my concerns were addressed It'll a timely fashion.

Sep 13, 2024

It was my Dr's day off so I saw a fill in Doctor. Although he was very pleasant I still have some questions in my mind. I know I had gout.. But then I worried about neuropathy in my feet and if physical therapy would help. Then I checked info for myself on the internet. I have been seeing Dr [...] for years and there is a trust that exists there. This visit leaves me with a feeling that I still need to have a conversation with her even if it is just a zoom call.

Absolutely fabulous DOCTOR. He was just filling in, yet he had reviewed my health record thoroughly and was prepared. Listened a tentatively and responded in a thoughtful professional manner. I wish very much that this doctor was still in practice today.

Dr. Scheier was absolutely wonderful during my appointment with him [...]! He was 'filling In' for the PA I usually see (who was on vacation); and this was my first time meeting Dr. Scheier. I was astounded by how detailed and thorough he was in addressing a medication issue related to my ongoing struggle to stabilize my hypertension. Dr. Scheier is a wealth of knowledge; included me in the discussion about changing my medication regimen; and was also incredibly kind and professional. Dr. Scheier is easily one of the best physicians from whom I have ever received care!

I've always been happy with Dr. Iacobucci's care, and that of his office staff. Dr. Scheier was filling in, and was absolutely wonderful. I went into my appointment feeling awful, nit to mention scared, and I walked out with an answer. A million thanks to all!

[...] He was very professional and respectful, thorough and knowledgeable, but was not acquainted with us and so not familiar with the health issues. Secretarial staff were present and seemed to do the job they were given [...] My family has some serious health concerns and we have always (10 years +) been very very pleased with the care at this office.

Dr. Scheier was extremely thorough in the questions he asked me about my current illness. He prescribed medications and gave me advice that are truly helping me to get better. I had never met Dr. Scheier before, so he didn't have the benefit of knowing me or my medical history. I was very grateful to have him available to treat me when my regular physician was not available.Thank you!!!! We need more doctors like Dr. Scheier!!!!!
