Dr. Schwartz helped me during a very stressful situation. As soon as I met him I felt comfortable and at ease. He explained everything and made sure I understood everything throughout the entire process. He checked up on me after my visit and my operation. The office is clean and the staff is friendly and nice. He was always attentive, responsive and I never felt rushed. I honestly don't know what I would have done without Dr. Schwartz and all of his help. Thank you again for everything Dr. Schwartz!

5* for Dr Sandeep Kour, Endocrinologist @BergenMed To get it out of the way, I agree with many of the reviews about Bergen Med as an overall practice.  Nearly impossible to get someone on the phone, you don't feel like a human - let alone a valued patient at the office which is incredibly dated in practice and presentation with no regard for patient privacy during the intake process.   That said, as someone who has had to have at least 2x/year appointments with an endocrinologist for the past 15 years, Dr Kour is the best endocrinologist I have worked with.  Prior to Dr Kour, I worked with an endocrinologist with a wall full of awards, an endocrinology-specific practice, and specialists in both NYC and London. Dr Kour is, hands-down, the most patient-focused physician I have worked with.  I never feel rushed in my appointments and she never only looks at me as blood work numbers.  In tandem with the qualitative data from my blood work, Dr Kour asks questions about my life, my lifestyle, how I'm feeling, what *I* think is working or not.  Dr Kour has worked with me to figure out a protocol - of both medication and lifestyle - that has optimized my life.  She has celebrated my successes with me and troubleshot when I haven't felt my best. Dr Kour has suggested options -- something I've rarely experienced with thyroid protocols -- and given me both relevant information and time to figure out if I want to try something.  She is clearly passionate about people and endocrinology and I - and Bergen Med - are very lucky to have found her.

If you need a urologist look no further. Dr. Schwartz, his staff and everyone at the practice are terrific. Dr. Schwartz took me through initial diagnosis all the way through surgery, and I can't say enough about his expertise, surgical and communication skills and ability to help me through my down times and explain everything I needed to know. Special kudos to Melissa at the front desk in Paramus, and Dr. Schwartz's assistant practitioner Nabil who is hands down the absolute best. Kudos also to the Montvale office staff, who are as friendly and efficient as you could ever want. Thank you!

I would just like to mention that the professionalism along with the personal touch was beyond anything I have experienced in the past. Actually, I can say the same about every physician I have had experience with at Bergen Medical Associates.
