Sheldon Solomon's Online Review Report Card

While Dr. Solomon technically took a lot of time for my visit, almost 80% of the visit was spent with him berating and shaming me for my body because when I listed my concerns to him the most minor was a concern for some of my labs and whether or not I might also have a thyroid issue. Instead of addressing my major concerns regarding chronic ailments (sleep disruption, pain, numbness etc) he told me I was eating too much, he didn’t believe in the modern approach to metabolisms, and continued to body shame me throughout my visit. It didn’t matter to him that I’ve run marathons and train consistently, he made me feel humiliated and debased. He argued with me over whether or not I knew what a fever was and challenged me over why I was on birth control. Then he gave me a diagnosis of a disease within his scope of practice, an out of date article on the disorder and told me “there’s nothing more you need besides to lose weight.” Awful visit. Not helpful. Younger females avoid. Unsubscribe.

My appointment wasn't rushed. He asked questions, listened to my husband and I, gave me a comprehensive examination, checked test results taken afterwards and then ordered further tests that he felt needed based on previous information. Very thorough, kind, professional, and compassionate and has a sense of humor.

Got my records I needed for another doctor. Dr Solomon wrote I denied abdominal pain. That was one of my major complaints! He also wrote my son is dead from a car accident! He is quite alive and well. Refused to discuss ramifications to me of his diagnosis. I honestly don't think he knew or didn't want to be bothered taking the time. Got 100X more info from another specialist and I now know what I should and shouldn't do for my condition. Wow. Make sure you get a second opinion. I'd be lost if I hadn't.

Dr. Solomon is excellent. He has discovered every major health issue that I have had based on his comprehensive and thorough knowledge of auto-immune diseases. He has been my doctor for over 20 years and he is the model of what all doctors should be.

I have been a patient of Dr. Solomon for 35 years. I have Lupus. He is very knowledgeable and has saved my life more than once. He is a great doctor and a kind and caring person.

INACCURATE RECORDS/POOR COMMUNICATION. Got copies of records needed for another doctor. According to Dr. Solomon I denied abdominal pain. That was one of my major complaints! According to the records my son is also dead from a car accident! Sorry but he is quite alive and well. Refused to discuss his diagnosis, saying I'd just confuse myself. Got 100x more info from a specialist and now know what I should and shouldn't be doing for my condition. Whatever you do, get a second opinion and more info. Wow.

Dr. Solomon is knowledgeable, kind and thorough. I'm very impressed.

He obviously knows a lot and was helpful in some areas but was rude how he went about it. He badmouthed my asking a simple question about statistics from medical research article saying google doesn't know more than his medical degree. I wasn't asking about internet junk! Then he pulls out his cell and asks Siri a question! Wait...Apple's Siri knows more than his medical degree?? Then he got very rude saying myself and my spouse were paranoid because we did not like having Siri listening in on our conversation.( he did not turn it off) He doesn't know as much as he likes to think he does. He also pushed heavy for an IV therapy, even telling me I'd have to probably take pills first to make my insurance happy and how to lie about side effects of the pills to his nurse so my insurance would approve the IV therapy. He refused to answer other questions we had, waving them aside, saying they weren't important. Time to retire doc.
