I had my first appointment with Dr. Sugarman yesterday and I am so relieved to be in his care. It struck me how thorough he was with gathering the details of my medical history. At no time during the appointment did I feel rushed. He answered my questions and then made recommendations. He listened to my concerns, and then he offered a plan which was a great relief to me. Dr. Sugarman is kind and sensitive. My husband and I got the impression that he cares about his patients and we are feeling fortunate.

He is smug and condescending. He bullied me into treatments and gets personally insulted when you ask questions. I beg anyone I meet to never go to him.

Went to see dr for consultation. He does not like questions and raised his voice when asked. Maybe he had a bad day, but considering he is dealing with Cancer patients, he should show a little understanding..

Dr. Sugarman is very knowledgeable and trustworthy. I respect him as my doctor. I place my life in his hands. He is a quiet man with a sense of humor.
