Dr. Scher is the best of the very best in every respect! He puts his patients at ease and makes them feel very comfortable. I am so lucky to have been under his care for almost 50 years.

Dr. Scher is extremely knowledgeable and a very good person. Late in my pregnancy, my blood pressure skyrocketed!!! I had to be scheduled for an emergency C-section. Dr. Scher was scheduled to give a significant lecture that night. He canceled to stay with me, although it was difficult for him. He was determined to make sure that my twins and I got through all right. Throughout my pregnancy he was encouraging and supportive. Do not hesitate to see him. He is the BEST!

There are no words to describe how this man saved my life by giving me the best gift ever, my daughter, and knowing I could stop miscarrying. I was 43 when I went and miscarried 3 times before. Gave birth at 44.5. Go now. Don’t wait. Love him
